• Why are some BOB 88E listings priced much lower than the market rate? +

The genuine market value of BOB 88E reflects its specific characteristics — plate format, letter combination, rarity and any name or word that buyers may associate with it. NewReg lists BOB 88E at £7,695 — the true market price — with a price match guarantee: if you find BOB 88E legitimately offered cheaper by another UK dealer, we will beat that price.
