I am really confused - I pick up my Juke on weds but I have a personalised number plate. I have always just paid the £80 to transfer the number plate and the garage has done it for me previously however Nissan has advised i pay a retention fee because when I part ex my car the number plate goes with it so if someone buys the car on thurs for example then they get it with my personalised plate because it is registered with that. pparently the retention is to make sure that the personalised plate is taken off my mini and it goes back to its original number plate.
I don't know what to do. I can get to my local DVLA office on friday at the earliest due to work commitments and do the transfer myself but risk the car being sold (i know it is unlikely to go in 2 days) and lose my plate or post the form for the retention to get my plate taken off the mini which will take a while getting to the DVLA in the post anyway.
I hope that makes sense, it is making the excitement of getting the car a little stressful!
