I have a vehicle which is currently on a SORN. I have someone wanting to buy it but I want to retain the Reg No (ie have it put on a retention certificate) Does anyone know if this is possible given the current circunstances?

YesDo they mean it must have a current MoT?
Will the buyer/new owner be putting the car back on the road and therefore have the car MOT'd?I have a vehicle which is currently on a SORN. I have someone wanting to buy it.
Dates back to the old days where people were less scrupulous- some dealers would have a shed full of old mopeds for which they would swap around chassis plates etc, sometimes even the chassis plate from a scrapyard was enough to get a number transferredWhat I dont understand is why does the donor car have to have an MOT, what difference does it make?

now everything is held on computer, this cuts down the fraud. Bit of a b&gg&r if you have a very valuable plate stuck on a car which hasn’t been taxed or MOTD since the mid-90s. Waiting for the plate value to exceed the restoration costs
It proves that the vehicle exists , and not just someone who still has the V5 for a long scrapped vehicle : I still have the V5s for a few vehicles I scrapped many moons ago , as well as the old pre-V5 'logbooks' for some of my dad's old cars which no longer exist .What I dont understand is why does the donor car have to have an MOT, what difference does it make?
