Advice on car purchase and private plate.

Looking at buying a car on ebay.
In short it's on 3 day listing and I quote the following from the sale description:

It wont be a new plate, it will be the original plate. The DVLA/HPi/police records will all cross reference both plates.

If you're not sure then get the VIN number from the seller as well for when you do the HPi check

tell the lazy fucker to sort it out prior to the sale, that's what people have said to me.

it can take upto 5wks for the process of removing/tranferring a plate.

i certainly wouldn't buy a car/bike where the v5 wont be present, all to save the current owner £40 quid (£80 for a transfer £120 to put it on retention)

probably leaving it on just in case the car doesn't sell.
