No,, You can sell car without WOF, You can change papers when on hold and you can do it online.

I dont think thats quite true. I just brought a car and the rego was on hold from the previous owner. i rang up and explained the situation and apparntly it stays on hold for the time set by the previous owner.

double check that before blithely leaving it to run out to the end of the previous owners exemption - I think you will find you've been given incorrect or incomplete info
also a note, if the rego is not on hold but overdue a change of ownership leaves you the new owner at day one and the old owner with a bill to pay, you can actually buy a vehicle that has reg owing and put it on hold as soon as it is in your name( theres been more than a few vehicles sold to partners and or family members to get around the 'pay overdue before exemption can be applied for' clause - at least it stops it accruing more cost)

yep new owner had to put it on hold when we sold a car that was already on hold. Best thing to do is ASK when you change ithe papers,

This is not correct. An exemption behaves in the same way as a licence (it is just a type of licence), it is unaffected by the change of ownership.
