Transfering Reg numbers

[jabs]

If your roadster gets a "Q" plate then you cannot transfer another plate to it. Also you cannot make the car look younger than it is so if your roadster has a 'J' plate for example you cannot transfer a 'K' plate to it, any prior and including 'J' would be ok

What's the car with the plate on?

I knew a guy who was trading plates at one time. He favoured Land Rovers. Find an old wreck in a field and buy it. Remove chassis plates (only form of ID on a LR). Submit the plates on a roadworthy LR for MOT. Obtain MOT cert and tax vehicle (usually tax exempt). This would release the plate for sale and the roadworthy LR returns to its former ID.

As I said, dodgy as you like!!!

If your Donor car is Tax exempt would the Roadster that I build be Exempt

No it applies to vehicles built prior to 1973. It won't apply to the plate and it is effectively now a different vehicle.
