How much is it worth? Private plate V81 FCU

Post by Tcochrane92 » Wed Feb 14, 2018 9:25 am

Apologies if this is in the wrong section!

Am considering selling my private plate: V81 FCU, but literally have no idea what it's worth!

If anyone could offer a gem of wisdom / make an offer that'd be great :)

£250.00 most. OK it's short but its not even common initials.
It may have value as a 'cover' plate, (as it has been on your Zed) but I doubt you'll find anyone with those initials.
Give RegTransfers a call and I suspect they'll quote you about £100-£200 as they'll have to put a margin on it too.

Suggested prices are all over the place to be honest, so I'll pitch it at £300 and see how we go

£250 IMO.

Plate is meaningless to >99% of the population.
