Whatever somebody is willing to pay for it is the obvious answer. My own guesstimate would be about £350.

In Southend, there's a red one running around with reg V6 FTO, which i assume is worth quite a bit more...!

I had Psycho (P57CHO) on a Lotus Esprit V8 and it was worth jack sh*t. I agree with the previous comment - it is only worth what someone will pay. Sorry if it's not a positive answer but buying a reg is easy - selling one is very difficult.

lardypants, the reason i think V6 FTO might be a tad more valuable is because, er, the FTO has a V6 engine. Just a thought.

Question

Not sure about production dates i have to admit, it's not a car i have natural interest in, although i didn't think they'd stopped making them by V reg. But there is definitely an FTO with this number plate in south Essex!

yer i know ferk all about plates but i was always under the asumption that the older the plate more its worth as can fit a wider range of vehicles, such as A6 COS and R6 COS probably atleast a grand difference between them, i was kinda hoping mines worth £500 if i put it on retention

It's true that an older plate can be transferred to a larger number of cars, but even so, how many FTO owners who want an FTO plate would want A6 FTO? The only thing it's got going for it is the number 6, as in 6 cylinders, but the A doesn't help. I'd imagine you can get a wide range of plates with FTO letters from the DVLA for their standard price of £299.

Exactly. So you'd need to find somebody for whom the number 6 had particular relevance.

single numbers are worth more but as said before there are so many 'FTO' plates around it may not be worth a premium pover another plate.

FTO's are still being registered today so a V plate is more than likely
