has to be mot'd and taxed to transfer or retain a plate

MOT september, do insurance transfer to get certificate, tax it and loose a month when you cash it back in, and take the plate off...

Works for me at the LVLO anyway....

Well seeing i just sold my Facelift 2.2 for £280 (just short MOT) then id say look for something else.

Bargains do crop up.

 

an L reg with good tyres and private plate for £100? no brainer!, sell the plate and the tyres and bin the rest!!

You would make more than £100 on breaking it and then weigh the rest in.

How do you go about getting a price for selling a private plate?

Just google for cherished number plate dealers.  Most of them have an online valuation search facility....

It will depend on a number of things, I believe, including if the car becomes accident damaged/insurance total loss whilst the private plate is on and whether its been out of tax/mot for an extended period.  If the latter, I think the plate becomes irrecoverable, but not 100% on that....

depends how long after such accident/mot expiry occured as far as i know

a donor vehicle needs to technically be roadworthy by DVLA rules for someone to have it's plate removed, because it needs to be re-registered to its original (or available age related) number, but  if you crash your car and write it off then its not technically road worthy, so they give a time limit of something like a month to get your plate off a written off car so you dont lose out
