Am I insured if my Registration plate has changed but my insurance does not know?

....Personally I would have delayed doing the plate change until after notifying the insurance.

Yes that is what I ought to have done but I got mixed up between Saturday and Sunday and the insurance was closed when I called them - my fault completely for sure.

I think you'll be ok Take the letter from the DVLA with you and the new V5. You and your car are insured, all that is needed is a change of recorded details. Easily explained to plod with the letter to show them.

I did just that knowing that I have not modified the car which may have altered my premium and that both plates (old and replacement) were still legally assigned to me. I made the call to the insurance company as soon as they opened and the change has been noted and I have been charged £17 for the change on my policy.
