Daniel / Steve/ List
Having bought and sold quite a few reg. numbers, I
am something of an expert!
BTW, do you know the legal definition on an
"Expert"? Some one who knows more than the average person!...Makes usall
experts on something! Any way I digress;-
DMC.... and ...DMC were all issued during the
1950's so there are not many left, and the only ones left for the government to
sell are the A12 Dmc's etc.but you cannot "make a car appear newer than it is"
by putting a later reg. number on it.
So unless you are lucky enough to begiven a
"D" reg as was Richard Sandiland, you would not be able to buy D12 DMC, as
Richard did!
The dateless DMC numbers are quite expensive, I
only said £1k because I was offered one at that price. In reality £2K would
probably be nearer the mark for a 3 digit one. I guess that DMC 12 would
be worth about £5/6 K today.
I recently bought G7OLF for my misses VW Golf, we
get a lot of comments about it. I bought 2 CP from
the government auction about 8 years ago and its value has increased about 5
fold!
I am hoping to buy DUS7Y when that too is auction
by the government..mind you I will have to ensure that Dusty is initially issued
with a "Y" reg, otherwise a W would preclude me from putting it on that car! I
am working on that currently!
The Irish numbers are quite cheap and "dateless" so
AXI's or SIJ's are all available for a few hundred pounds, I am currently
thinking of buying, GUI 512.......GUIS 12....get it...only £800! GUL 15W is
still for sale @£1145, DMC 99V is similar, DEL 81T is also £1200, SIJ 81 is £1850, GUL 1 is £20K! Etc. Irealy like
RHD 1 but at £14k its too rich for me!
Told you I was an expert.

In my experience the
plate makes no difference to value unless it was itself worth a lot (££££s for
example). This is not a rule. Remember that a DMC plate will be worthlessto
everyone but us (I saw a lovely N plater Porsche 911 yesterday with DMC on it,
to the owner? worthless), the same goes for cars such as M3 BMWs, we've all
seen the plate M3 BMW advertised haven't we?
There are plenty of
those plates (DMC) about so I reckon we should all get them....!
Good
luck,
