Their registration numbers may now be non-transferable! But I bet DVLA will retain them as they are scrapped or written off.
Conditions for transferring a registration number
You can transfer your vehicle registration number:
•from your vehicle to another one in your name
•to a vehicle you’re buying
•to someone else’s vehicle
You can’t transfer a registration number:
•starting with ‘Q’ or ‘NIQ’ for Northern Ireland registered vehicles
•if it will make the vehicle it’s being transferred to look younger
To transfer the registration number, both vehicles must be:
•registered at the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA)
•available for inspection
•of a type that needs an MOT or heavy goods vehicle (HGV) test certificate
•currently taxed
However, if the vehicle that currently has the registration number is not taxed, you can still apply to transfer provided:
•there is no break between the date the tax disc runs out and the start of the SORN
•the tax disc run out no more than 12 months before the date you apply
