Hi guys,

Let's say I'm buying a used car, and I would like to change the number plate to a new one. How do I go about and what are the cost? Involved?

I would prefer to do it myself if possible, however it the hassle is too much then I might consider a runner's service.

Thanks in advance!

Just tell the salesman u want to swap number. I think they do it free or with small fee

According to my used car dealer he said that will cost RM1000 for runner fees, I'm quite shocked it costs that much which is why I would like to do it myself first

no free one lor, want sekurang kurang lapan ratus

even a normal number selection would cost RM350, even if you do ureself the cost shall be around RM600 to RM800 ..

Wait u buying a used car, but u dun like the number and want to get a new number?
FYI plate number must be "swapped" for used cars, u cant just register a used car with a new plate.
The only possible way is to buy a motor and swap the current number to motor, then apply new number for car.

TBH dont waste ur money, it really costs about 800-1K.
U are not buying a new car anyway, or an expensive car.

I thought u buying new car earlier

Haha it is a PG plate and I will be driving in KL often. so......

Cheapest cost i know so far is RM800 to park your old number at new motorcycle at dealer shop.

Do you have a contact to the runner that did this, and do you know whether that RM800 inclusive of the new number?

Thanks

If you need a runner, I have someone that my company engages to do these JPJ-related transactions. Do you want his contact details?

Sure why not, however I'd like to know the price first . Thanks

my SA quoted me 1400 for number swapping when i bought a new car.
your existing car will have to be sent to Puspakom for inspection before the swapping.

hm my uncle.. love his plate number.. single digit the few with 8 or 7 better, pay up to RM50K- 100K xx rich ppl with money over flow their account.. x

1400.....

Go ask bike shop. Some can do it at 1k

Pm me

What utter rubbish price is that
Toyota only quoted me RM550 for swapping my old plate to new car

Scamming scheme by the car dealers?

That is if you buy an old car. My situation is if you want to change a used car's plate without buying a new car

just go find someone who wants to buy a bike and dun mind using your plate. basically the person register his NEW bike with your plate and you are free to register one for yourself

Charging RM1.4k just for number plate change is exorbitant.
If you're buying a Used Toyota.

Better go Topmark.
It is an authorized reseller by Toyota for used cars.
They provide 1 year warranty.

Same goes to MUV and Mazda Anshin.
Authorized reseller for Nissan and Mazda respectively.

If I am not wrong, Hyundai, Volvo, BMW do have pre-owned vehicles as well.
