Sell my Q-plate car
The DVLA issues a Q plate when it can't establish a vehicle's age or identity, which often happens with imports that arrive without proof of their history. A Q plate puts many buyers off. It doesn't put us off.

Sell my Q-plate car: FAQs
Does a Q plate lower the value?
It can, because some buyers avoid them. How much depends on the car, its condition and what is known about its history.
Can the Q plate be removed?
Only if the DVLA accepts new evidence of the vehicle's age and identity. If you have that evidence, send it to us as it may help the price.
What do I need to sell it?
The V5C in your name, photo ID, all keys, and any paperwork explaining where the car came from.
