I get it
Nice friends and if it's your full initials then it's individual to you whilst still remaining a bit stealthy (sometimes no bad thing :lol: )Trying to get my head around the DVLA process - would appreciate it if somebody could clarify. 
I need to remove an existing personalised plate and retain it for someone else (another forum member). Then I've bought the entitlement to my own reg (I have a V750), for which I need to get plates made and then put them on my the car.
The issue is that there doesn't seem to be an option on the "take a reg off a car" form (V317) for putting your own plate on. Which means the car is likely to get assigned some random reg first before I can put mine on. Is that right? :?

Yeah I think thats the way it works. Your car will be reassigned the original number plate, and then you have to assign your new one.
You need to send in TWO V317's, one to retain your existing number, and one to assign the new number, and yes, they will charge you two lots of £80, even though it is no more work for them..
