About £500? If you can find someone willing to pay that.

As it actually is SO08 ROO .... in legal configuration

I don't know

I recon you might be able to get a bit more.
You could advertise it with the 8 looking more like B people, do it all the time

Firstly you bought, not brought.

It's not a bad plate, so I'd say anywhere between £500-£800 to the right buyer.

This is true and there seems to be a trend to move away from what has now become a rather chavtastic coined nick name for Subaru.

There are still some classic owners with toy dogs on the parcel shelf mind you, but this is worthless to them [ kidding before I get flamed ]

It is rather tacky these days ....... I have a private plate, but mine doesn't need to 'make believe' any letters or spacings .. it's a proper one!

just had a quick look........

common Scooby plates are S600 BXX, where the XX are the initials.

So my 4 year old lads initials are DW so the plate is

S600 BDW.. which translates to SCOOB DW (small plastic screws)

DVLA Number Plates| Number Plates| Personalised Number Plates | Private Number Plates

£144 plus the transfers

I have 2 private number plates and I couldn't give a **** about how it looks from a negative point of view. I have N555 WGN on my 1995 N reg genuine 555 wagon. Legally spaced and rather nice I think. I also have EV02 STU for my EVO 7 when it finally becomes mine. For now it's on my SpecD and breaks the ice at most meets

Not a fan of ***** spaced scoob plates tbh.
