Hi mate, this is from DVLA site, not sure if seller has to pay or do anything to remove from his car first, but your part is covered

'To transfer a registration mark from one vehicle to another you will need to complete a V317 - Transferring a Vehicle Registration Number application form. The cost of transfer is £80.'

Read this;
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
If the above is OK, then;
You will need to:
  • complete a V317 ‘application to transfer or retain a vehicle registration number’ - if the number is being transferred to someone else’s vehicle, then both registered keepers must complete the application
  • enclose the £80 transfer fee
Also enclose for both vehicles:
  • the registration certificate or the new keeper supplement with a completed V62 ‘application for a vehicle registration certificate V5C'
  • a test certificate – needed for cars and motorcycles over three years old, and heavy goods vehicles over one year old
