We are hoping to sell one of our cars which has been serviced and passed a W.O.F. today (04/02/14 ) At the moment it has a personalised plate which of course is on all the documents, service history and W.O.F. My question is this, is it better to show the car with this personalised plate and when a sale is agreed then change the plate or is it best to get a change of plate now please ?

Perhaps to save any confusion with buyers, it may be preferable to change the plate prior to putting the vehicle on the market, but it doesn't really matter - you can do it whichever way you want.

Thank you, and of course I have found out that we keep the personal plate anyway so can show that to the buyer if any confusion.
