number plate valuation
 
is there anywhere i could get a qoute for a plate i have on my s2,i think it might be worth something and as it means nothing to me i think ill sell it

Fil 30-06-2010 09:09 PM

dunno where, but seems pretty worthless to me unless ive missed something?

Rsmat 30-06-2010 09:12 PM

doesnt really mean owt.

155lee 30-06-2010 09:13 PM

its maybe worthless to you but worth something to someone else.thats why i want an expert valuation.

billybigspuds 30-06-2010 09:20 PM

all the companys online are fukking idiots, the amount of plates ive had over the years is unreal, trhey quote silly figures then your sat there a year later with it not sold

best thing is to use common sence and advertise it yourself for the right money, you already have a rough idea what its worth so just do it and stop hopping its worth a fair bit more cause they just aint lol

unless its something special

Rsmat 30-06-2010 09:26 PM

lee the reg G500 ESC...i really cant see it being worth much mate unless your 500 year old and own and escort or own a 500bhp escort maybe...they just dont fetch much i can get rs59 mat for my car for £750...so really not alot of money.

well you never know and thats why i would like to get it valued.it means nothing to me but is a tidy number,my last saph had the plate c11 wth on it,that means absolutely nothing as nobody got that it could mean 'cosworth' but it was still worth £350.i didnt ask to be put down,only where i could get it valued,if its worth nothing then its no loss to me but i want to find out.if you cant tell me where to get it youre not helping me.

billybigspuds 30-06-2010 09:48 PM

according to reg transfers and all the other sites, the 3 plates i have on retention are worth 1200 ish each., have i sold them? have i fuck i cant even sell them at 400, last time i tried was months ago

BLACKCOS 30-06-2010 11:34 PM

just sold my cos plate for £1500 wasn't planing on selling it but i was contacted about it a few months ago

mulla 01-07-2010 09:10 AM

my number plate is BBO 5T reads boost do you think its worth much

Chip 01-07-2010 09:16 AM

Its worth 800 pounds, I'll sell it for you for a commission of 25%
I will do so by adding it so some massive list of poorly advertised plates on my website, its massively unlikely anyone will ever buy it, but that doesnt bother me as ive nothing to lose, and if it does sell im quids in.


Thats roughly what an "expert" valuation will be.

Plates are worth what someone will pay for them, end of, and unless you find such a person, then its worth nothing.

100% agree.

My Dad had RRY 494 for years and years on most of his cars, he was told by an "expert" it was worth £2200 so he tried selling it, didnt get a single call after 6 months he ended up selling it on his last car, I was fucking miffed coz I thought it was coming my way when he popped his clogs.

I know mate - was bloody excellent engine - i gave it death for years it was in my car and never had to open it up at all :top: i did get ahmed to check it over once it was fitted tho and he wrote a new chip for it so that could be the key for its longevity :clap:

i sold the engine when i stripped the car and i believe its still going strong today :top:

Never managed to break anything but i was trying to break the box but it would just spins its wheels instead :cry:

the reg site places just give you a stupidly high price so that you will go with them and let them sell it for you,as already said it will be on their site for yrs hoping some mug will come along eventually and buy it,which they most likely wont,just advertise it privately or on ebay with a price you want,if it doesnt sell then its overpriced and you can work your way downwards

haz87 07-02-2019 06:06 PM

8yr old thread - hopefully he's sold it by now :D

THE RADMAN 07-02-2019 06:12 PM

thats bizzare,i replied to a new post by turbotrev and its somehow attached itself to this ancient one,this sites gone to pot nowadays,it also takes forever to load with all the ads etc

haz87 07-02-2019 06:53 PM

It'll be that shitty auto-scroll thing that randomly chucks a completely irrelevant thread at the end of another. Wank feature
