Can a V778 be used on any vehicle?

A registration held on a V778 can only be assigned to an eligible vehicle that meets DVLA requirements.

Registrations held on retention can typically be assigned to:

  • Cars

  • Motorcycles

  • Vans

  • Other eligible DVLA-registered vehicles

However, the registration cannot be used if it would make the vehicle appear newer than it is. Before assigning a registration held under personal registration retention, it is important to check that the vehicle meets the DVLA's eligibility requirements.
