RE: Ultimate Evoque plates

It's an open forum and a place for opinion and general discussion.

Personally I've not seen your advert but do have experience with regtransfers and I know they will value a plate and if you aren't happy with their valuation they will put it up at any price of your choice.

What made you post this as a new thread?

RE: Ultimate Evoque plates

I can sympathise with you, but I think the comments were more tailored to inferring that 00UPE reads 'coupe'... well it does, but only if you make it illegal!
That and you emphasised the 'Ultimate' plates.

Your (now edited) ad, would have not attracted the responses it got and is now a 'better' for sale ad for it (IMO).

That said, reg transfers are always a bit over optimistic on their valuations... they put my GT55 GAV plate up for £1500... really? I only paid £250 for it! (though did get offered £550 for it).

Ordered: Fuji Dynamic Lux Coupe / style 7 wheels / Privacy glass / adaptive xenons / something else which I've forgotton.
Should be end of April (was March, then April, then end of May/June).

Something with RRE or LRX might be more appropriate.

Join an exclusive club. paulus599 has got V5 RRE, I liked the idea so bagged the next available which was V7 RRE. £405 inc first reg fee. V9 RRE is the next and if you want to dream V10 is up for bags. Might look a bit unusual on a straight 4! Could make a good photo opportunity one day if we got together.

I decided it was a bit like adding another option that might hold its value come resale time. Adds a bit of interest if nothing else.

RE: For Sale: Ultimate Evoque Plates

Don't expect that you will sell any recent plate easily when the time comes. I have had FA57 RRS (it was on my TDv8 RRS) plate for sale for 2 years and the only interest I have had for it was from the guy would brought the car when I traded it in. He didn't want to offer very much for the plate though. I was offered far more for the plate when it was on the car by a guy who wanted it for his Focus RS, to the extent that he followed me home to make me an offer of £10000 for it which I stupidly turned down. I will probably leave my current "cherished" plate on the car when I sell it, it's been too much hassle trying to sell one "on retention"

A Pangea Green New Defender 110 First Edition is now sitting on my drive alongside British Racing Green Electric Mini Cooper SE Level 3. After 21 years in my hands my TDI300 90 was handed on to the next custodian on 15 July 2022.

It will probably be in their auction unless of course it was a standard issue in 2004 as obviously then there was no car that suited the number or they would have held it back.
If on a car you could try & trace it - tip - it would have been registered in Scotland (SD).

I was thinking of E1 OKE or E17 OKE. I dithered on E11 OKE & went back to find it sold.
