Hi all

My Mum's partner has replaced his very old Volvo and rather than scrap the car he asked if I could find out if he can get some money for the number plate.

Its not that unusual but it may appeal to someone. Its M20 RFC. Does anyone know where I should start looking for somewhere that is legit? (He is 75 and I don't want anything too complicated for him to put up with)

TIA
Couldn't think of anything witty to say so just keeping the space until I can :(

    As always EBAY? Any football clubs near you starting with an R? Park the car there with a for sale notice.

    Or a "Rugby Football Club"
    I used to be indecisive but now I am not sure.

    First thing that he needs to do, is to get the number off of the car, put it on retention, I believe the car needs to have road tax and a valid MOT to do this, he can then sell the number plate at his leisure, without the actual car.

    The car will have a new age related plate issued.

    A rugby football club in somewhere in Kent.

    How about Ashford Rugby Football Club?

    Seems to be less than one mile from the M20. :D
