Number plate transfer? How do I, Should I?
Discussion
OK, some time ago I bought a car with an interesting number plate - it's not posh, but it's recognisably mine, and gives a few people a smile.
The car is about to be sold, but currently has no tax or MOT.
I would consider transferring the plate to my next banger, for a similar effect.
Any idea of the timescale / amount of form filling, general hassle this will cause? Is it ever worth it? For example, do I need to show a 'sale' of the registration number etc?
Look forward to some replies.
The plate is N*** SAD (not much I know, but I like it)

Pre-1960 vehicles need a valid MOT to transfer a registration number.
Both vehicles should be currently taxed. However, if the vehicle that currently has the registration number is not taxed, you can still apply as long as:
the tax disc has run out in the last 12 months
there’s no break between the date the tax disc runs out and the start of the SORN (Statutory Off Road Notification)
