Not a fan of personal plates.

£50 It's not a cherished number as such and so holds no value, unless you're 55 years old and your initials are SRT...
I can see what you're implying it might say if the S was a 5 and all that malarky, but from memory it would only be S1-20 that were classed by the DVLA as cherished... S55 is just a standard plate like S56 or S847 or S426 etc...

The DVLA would probably charge £250. The same amount as I paid for mine.

I wouldn't pay any more than that.

It gains value due to SRT been used on various works cars since 1999. It's quite a good number, I would probably value it at £250 -£500.

As with all these type of plates they are only worth the premium to somebody who knows what the association is.

It was up for 850! I put an offer of 600 just waiting to hear back. The only problem is that it is personal to the car not to me!!

£600 sounds a bit steep. I recently paid £250 including all fees for S9EKD (which will be displayed with legal font and spacing) to put on my Spec D. I bought it knowing it is car specific and if no one wants it when I come to sell the car, it will stay on the car. I considered this before parting with my money and in any case to some buyers it might make the car more attractive (even if it does not affect the car's value).

So just as well to consider if you are prepared to leave it on the car if you dont buy another Scooby.
