I have done this myself.Ibought a plate off the dvla website for £300 and they also included the £80 transfer fee.They send you the certificate through the post,then you take it to a dvla office near you with the tax disc,mot cert and log book of the car that you wish to put the plate on and they will alter the paperwork for you.Then all you need to do is get your new number plates made up and fitted to the car.REMEMBER the cherished plate you buy cannot be a younger reg than the car it is going on.Hope this helps.

its easy I done it, go on personally yours or such as, it will probably cost around £300 depending on the plate ie mine has 2 numbers in it and cost me £300, it would usually cost £80 to get it transferred into your car but they will add that into the cost first time round, if you choose to change your car and keep the plate it will cost you £80 every time you change the car your plates on. you need to put your friends name in the bit where it says who is the car registered too, you need the full name too otherwise it wont recognise it will take longer to register. You would probably need to go tom your local DVLA office or send it to them, the post office cant do it anymore.

Hope this helps

If you are in the UK look at the DVLA website - they sell personalised plates and probably have the advice on their website. Good luck - I think it's a great idea.

I think the admin fee from DVLA is £80 most plate company's include it in their prices. check it out on the web site.

Depends on the state laws, they differ greatly. Call you DMV, it is listed in a thing they used to call a phone book, if I remember correctly. :-)

check with your local tag agency - you will have to inquire if the tag is already taken - and what are the procedures to acquire it - if not
