Try phoning round the trade sellers to see what they'd offer it at for a commission sale, or find out what they'd pay and add a bit for their resale margin?

A plate is only worth what people are willing to pay. I have sold 2 private plates the first was a long time ago before the internet was that popular and sold it via reg transfers, after having it up with them for about a year i eventually got about half what they valued it at.

Second one i sold via Ebay. Don't worry about the paperwork it's easy to sort out.

ok so there isn't a company that specialise in number plates? not looking to sell, just wondering if the plate that i have on the bike would add to value, the bike is a 03 zzr, plate is, myo3zzr, so i know it is only relevant to 03 plate zzr owners, but you never know

MY04ZZR is up on the regtransfers site for £679 but as I said before these are all open to offers.

Mr LPH bought me a plate for Christmas. With LPH on it - but there can't be many Littlepeaheads around who would want to buy it off me. My car plate says Woo. It's not a special one but I do like having a Woo-mobile.
