escort new boy Posted June 16, 2008 Report Posted June 16, 2008 Im in the process of buying two 100e's i'm keeping the one and stripping or selling the other it has MOT how would i go about flogging the plate to try recoup some money? Cheers Jack
Jubfab Posted June 16, 2008 Report Posted June 16, 2008 It needs to be taxed as well as MOT'd (be free tax anyway I suppose) Easiest way is to put the plate on retention (costs about £105) go to the nearest Licensing office (not your local post office) Take your docs and your money. They swap it there and then and print new docs for you while you wait (or the one in Leeds does) Then sell your 100e with the new plates - or break it etc. Then contact some of these plate people and see if they can sell if for you they act like an estate agent - they say they will sell it for £x and then put it on there books (when sold they take a commision). But be warned it takes em forever (unless it's a good number - common name for example) and every year you need to renew the retention certificate (costs £25 every year) alternatively you could try and sell via local press / ebay etc but you need to find the right person etc. Some people just want owt to take the year letter off there car so if priced right you should be ok. What number is it? is it definatley transferable (check the log book)
