All the info you need should be here Paul.

She needs to fill out a V317 and it costs £80. Then she'll need to fill out a V62 for the new V5C.

cheers for the speedy respoinse lads !!! appreciated

ok might be missing a bit in my quick read of that , understanding about keeping her private plate and transfering that over,

but what about getting a new registration for the micra so her old man can drive it to a show room for trade in? or will that have something to do with the registration that originaly came with her car before she changed to private one?

Just go into the local dvla office with tax disc reference and v5c mot and insurane cover note and they do it all takes a week or 2 now

you should get the original reg for the micra back. The DVLA will keep you right on that.

That is what happened on the 2 cars i had my plate on. They just got their old reg back.
