Hi,

I have two cars, the one that I’m selling has a number plate that I want to keep.

How can I transfer that to my other car before I put the first one up for sale?

Basically I want to switch the plates between the cars.

The car that I am selling is older (2011) than the car that I’m keeping (2014)

old car can put new no. plate ONLY, cannot put old no. plate

new unreg car can put old and new no. plate

Just saw its between old vehicles, so cannot.

So you will need to get runner at moto shop to do the transfer for you.

Honestly unless it a vip number plate, its not worth the hassle.

Use runner and do interchange using motorbike

Think your car needs to go Puspakom also

If it's not a special number plate, not worth it

Good info, i just knew bout this 🙂👍

Thanks all for the info. I guess not worth it. The number is not a vip plate but a 3 digit number which would cost around 3-4k if I buy it again.

cannot; but anthony shd change this rule, cos we have spent big sums to buy special numbers and can only transfer to new vehicles

actually can:
1) buy the new model of the car you want to keep (or just get a new car in general).
2) transfer the old plate number you want to have to this new car, and get a new plate number for the old car.
3) sell off the 2 older cars

3 digits that cost 3-4k, a triple

Old to old - not possible.

Old to unregistered (new / recond) - ok

If you really like the number, just buy a cheap China motorcycle. Interchange to that motorcycle. Then can sell the old car.

Just sell it with the car, peace of mind 😇✌️

Yes but not 888. That is definitely not 3-4k 😂

Just buy your new car, transfer and reg with your old triple digit plate to it.

After that is done, sell that old car with a new reg plate.

I’m not buying any car. Just want to switch plates between two cars that I own

Unless the number worth it ... otherwise, forget about it.

When I sell my car. The number worth as my car value.
Buyer buy my car only because of the car plate number.

Opss sorry, I misunderstood.

Lol cannot be done if not buying a new vehicle to interchange.

Unless there's a special trick that we are not aware of.

if i buy a recond car... considered old or new? i wish to use old number

what actually is considered a "special number plate " ?

Vip number or the number bring some meaning to the owner itself such as anniversary year, birth year etc

keyword unregister doesnt matter new, recond, old stock

Special series like AMG, AMY, FF, BMW etc

Numbers like 168, 88, single digits etc

i think special series does not necessarily mean special number.

GOLD 4128, MADANI 1627, etc numbers like this can buy for RM300 only from mysikap portal.

Those numbers feel so gawdy. I like a nice two alpha and three digit. Perfect cost/value combo

Hard to see madani plate number on the road 😅

my wife also scold me dont get this plate.

could look political or ppl may think you govt servant lol

Straight forward okey, car so expensive and you work hard to pay for it every month, madani plate? Please laa 😅

what is the cheapest new vehicle one can buy for the sake of keeping an old number plate and how much does it cost?

Seems like the cheapest new motorcycle

gemini says the cheapest new vehicle with number plate i can buy in malaysia is the Aveta DY90 2025 motorcycle.
RM2888 OTR price.
