Private plate score

Type any private plate and our system scores it out of 100 on the spot. It works on a mark you already own, one you are thinking of buying, or one you have just made up.

It is the same scoring mechanism our own search uses to decide which private plates to put in front of a buyer first.

What the score is reading

Every part of the score is a fact about the registration mark itself, and one we can point at:

• How short it is. The fewer characters a registration mark carries, the fewer of them exist.
• How cleanly it reads. A mark that spells a name with the genuine letters reads at a glance. One that stands a 5 in for an S reads to the person who chose it and to nobody else.
• What the number is doing. Whether it belongs to the word or sits beside it.
• The style. A dateless registration mark carries no year, so it goes on a vehicle of any age and every buyer is a possible buyer.
• How many people it could appeal to. A common first name has more buyers than a surname.

What the score cannot tell you

The score reads the characters. It does not know what one particular buyer would pay on one particular day, and nothing outside the registration mark reaches it. For that, ask our team. The valuation is free and there is no obligation to sell once you have the figure.

Above 85

The score is not only a reading. A private plate scoring above 85 is considered for outright purchase, and where we buy, the purchase is completed within four weeks. Ask what yours is worth and it will be looked at on both footings.

Scoring one you do not own

The score works just as well before you buy. Run it on a private plate you are considering, on the one already on your vehicle, and on a mark you have only imagined, and compare the three.

The score is a starting point. For evidence of what actually sells, read which prefix private plates are most valuable and the current-style study. When you are ready, ask our team what yours is worth, and private plates as an investment says what nobody can promise.
