Or contact the companies that sell your plate for you, They may says its worth £££££ but will just get added to their advert and may never sell in your lifetime.

Ebay start at 99p and it will find its own value. Unless you dont want to risk it selling for 99p.

How about AR53 BIG ?


The above link, Its in their best interest to find you a quick sale. Yes they get commission but its not like it costs them anything or requires any work other than add it to their advert.

After thats done they can forget it unless someone wants to purchase it. They dont have to show people round or come round and take photo's etc.

There are companies listing my number plate for sale and it isn't! I even clicked the "Enquire Further" button on one of them and they sent me an Email saying they had contacted the owner and it was definitely available.
Hence I wouldn't trust them and would advise trying to sell it yourself.

Unless it is something really special (eg undated) it will little or no value.

I wouldnt spend £80 to transfer it. Thats a nearly a full tank of fuel.

If it has sentimental value, just put it on retention until you get another car it can go on.
