Lovely car Roger but you are getting a bit confused in your "Irish" thoughts. Shelbourne is in Northern Ireland therefore everybit as much part of the UK as England / Scotland / Wales. In fact most NI car registrations are now processed through Swansea so there is totally no issue with a car registered in N Ireland and a huge amount of cars pass over the sea in either direction for sale. It will have absolutely no effect on the resale and sometimes can actually add value as you could have retained the original NI registration for that "private" look had you not had your own plate. Most of the private plates used on cars in England are infact just regular NI registrations.
Large petrol engined cars are really unpopular in NI as we seem to have become a country of diesel car lovers so would possibly help to explain why they were keen to move on a performance car, that and the fact the car trade is on its knees so they will be glad to sell anything.
