If he wants to keep his plates then you will have to buy new plates for it. You can do this by going to your local secertary of state office but be sure to bring the title to the car(make sure he has signed the title over to you and usually u have to enter how much you paid of the car on the title as well) Also make sure to bring proof of insurance and your drivers license as well because they will probably ask for all of it.

My son posted his driving license application to DVLA and forgot to put a stamp on it. What will happen to it?

The original plates that were on the car before he put the private ones on still 'belong' to the car - unless they have been sold. At the moment the car is registered with the private plate - if he's not going to let you have it he needs to get car re-registered. If he hasn't already done that and you are buying the car tomorrow he will have to let you take the car with the private plate because that is the legal registration of the car. Best scenario is he sorts it all out before he sells it to you.

if i never went to the dmv to get my permit but i still have my paper that says i pass long can keep that?

Current laws and I think they are in every state. You keep your tags. You either can take the tags off of one of your vehicles that you are no longer using and transfer it to the new car or if you do not have a tag at all from prevous vehicles then when you go to title the car at the tag office you purchase a new tag in your name.

This chap should have arranged to get the plate off the car before selling it. He must get a form from the local DVLC and provide all the paperwork and they will then take the plate off this car and then issue the car with another reg number (possibly the one it originally had ). It is HIS responsibility to do this not yours.

If he wants to retain his plates he will have to get them either transferred to another vehicle, or put them on a retention certificate at his own cost. When he does this the DVLA will issue a new registration for the vehicle (often the one that used to be on it) to reflect the year the car was put on the road.

If he wants you to do this he will have to supply you with documents that give his private registration as the cars, therby making the plates he removed worthless to him and your property. If you then get new plates made up wth the same registration and fit them to the car, when it comes to who's responsible for identity theft he'd be responsible.

how do i get an hgv licence?


In fact I don't believe he can leave it with no ID at all, he should be given a new one for the car when he transfers the plates, which he will have to do at a DVLA office. If I were you I wouldn't buy the car with no ID, you may not be able to prove you bought it if you had to as the reciept will not correspond with the vehicle in question, same for tax, MOT, V5, your insurance etc.

is ther any country where you just pay for a driving licence without having to sit a test?

If the current owner wants to keep the plates then they should have had the foresight to have changed them back before selling the vehicle.A call to the DVLA will give you all the info you need but bear in mind there will be a charge for changing reg plates and tax disc over. It can only be done at certain DVLA offices and in person.
