Number plates

The new Fabia Estate SE that I ordered for Sept has arrived early at the dealership. I had planned on 65 plates. They have offered an inducement equivalent to £100 for me to take the car early on 15 plates. Shall I take it? I am thinking about second hand values when I come to sell it

A 65 plate will make a difference, but a diminishing one. I'd go for the £100 and getting the car to enjoy for what's left of the summer.
