You can keep a private number plate quite easily. Simply apply to the DVLA for a V778 document to retain your plate. You'll have ten years to then put it on your next vehicle. Plenty of time! It's never advised to keep your insurance running. There's no benefit to it as you'll be wasting money. Plus, if the new driver gets into an accident while your insurance is still running, you could be liable.

The good news for private car sellers is that private car sales are currently exempt from Capital Gains Tax (CGT). CGT is applied to profits of specified possessions over £6,000.

These possessions include:

- Taxis

- Racing cars

- Single-seat sports cars

- Vans, lorries and commercial vehicles

Certainly. There's no obligation to buy your next car with us. In this case we would give you the money due for the amount your car is worth and part ways.

There are a couple of options:

- Ownership of the plate can be given to the buyer of the vehicle.

- You can apply to the DVLA for a V778 document to retain the plate.

With the V778 retention document from the DLVA, you have up to ten years to assign your plate to another car. Plenty of time to make the most of your private plate.
