Choose to Sell Directly or List Your Registration with Us
If you want to sell your cherished plate, begin by completing our simple form with your details and registration information as shown on this page.
Once submitted, our specialist team will conduct a thorough registration number plate valuation and respond within 48 hours with a detailed assessment.
If we’re interested in a direct purchase, we’ll make a cash offer. Please note that direct purchase prices reflect trade values and are typically lower than commission-based sale values.
We offer two pricing options:
- Direct Sale – quicker, with trade-based offers.
- Commissioned Sale – potentially higher value with our support in managing the sale.
Our complete service includes documentation handling and administrative assistance, giving you peace of mind throughout the sale.
When we value a reg plate, we operate on a NO SALE, NO FEE principle, eliminating any financial risk. You’ll only incur charges once your plate is successfully sold.
Understanding Our Valuation Process
At Motoreg, we specialise in providing fast, free, and expert Cherished plate valuation. Whether you’re curious about how much your personalised plate might fetch on today’s market or are seriously considering selling, our valuation service delivers accurate and up-to-date insights. As a trusted family-run business with decades of experience in the UK market, we understand the nuances, from the impact of initials and letter combinations to trends in cherished and dateless plate demand.
Our valuation process is simple. Just enter your registration using our online valuation form or call us at 024 7640 7604. There’s no pressure to sell—just honest advice and clear information.
Several factors affect a registration’s value, character count, and age indicators being key. Dateless plates, often used for classic or premium cars, are especially valued for their versatility and timeless appeal.
Our vehicle appraisals use real-world market analysis. We consider comparable listed registrations and their actual sales performance.
Be wary of firms offering initially inflated private number plate valuations only to later suggest price reductions for a sale.

Buyers FAQs
Can I buy a private number plate as a gift?
Yes, personal and cherished number plates make memorable gifts. You can buy a plate for someone else, and we’ll help with the DVLA paperwork so the registration is assigned to their vehicle when they’re ready.
Do private number plates keep their value?
Many do. Short, catchy, or dateless number plates often increase in value over time. If you choose wisely, your private registration can be both a personal statement and a long-term investment.
How long does it take to get my new number plate?
Transfers are usually completed within 1 to 2 weeks, depending on DVLA processing times. We handle the admin, keep you informed, and make sure the process runs smoothly from purchase to display on your vehicle.
Sellers FAQs
Can I sell my private number plate if it's not on a vehicle?
Yes. You can sell a plate that’s on a retention certificate. This means the number plate is stored with the DVLA and ready to be assigned to another vehicle once a buyer is found.
Will MOTOREG advertise my number plate for me?
Absolutely. Once you list your plate with us, it becomes visible to thousands of buyers searching for number plates for sale every month. Our platform is like a link between genuine buyers and sellers.
Are there fees when I sell my number plate?
We believe in clear, transparent pricing. Any fees are explained before you list your plate, so you know exactly what to expect. That way, you only pay for a service that helps you sell faster and securely.
