value of the\u00a0vehicle<\/a>.<\/p>\nWhat\u2019s the value of my number plate?<\/h2>\n
To get an idea of your number plate\u2019s value, the first step is to consider the desired qualities in registrations and see if yours ticks any of these boxes.<\/p>\n
Demand is the major factor affecting the price a plate may sell for. The more buyers are interested in your registration, the higher the amount you\u2019ll receive for it. You may find you have many potential buyers competing to purchase your plate and this can drive up the selling price.<\/p>\n
The age of a number plate can also be an important aspect of how valuable a plate is. The earliest number plates, sometimes referred to as dateless plates, are often highly desirable. Unlike the current registrations issued, as well as the prefix and suffix style plates that preceded them, these early plates include no age indicator. For car owners who wish to keep their vehicle\u2019s age a secret, this can be a powerful selling point.<\/p>\n
Shorter registrations are also highly prized. While mainly this is due to them being older number plates, there are other reasons as well why a plate with fewer characters might be considered more valuable. It\u2019s legal to have the width of your number plate shortened providing it still possesses the appropriate margin around the characters. A smaller number of alphanumeric characters makes for a smaller plate, allowing more of the car that carries it to be seen.<\/p>\n
Finally, if the characters on a number plate resemble a name, or popular phrase or word, this can also hike the value. The more closely it resembles the name or word, the more highly it\u2019s likely to be valued.<\/p>\n

For many years, if your number plate spelled out a name or resembled a well-known word, it was simply a matter of luck. Issued by the DVLA without any consideration for this, getting a plate now considered popular was a completely random coincidence.
