    Hello all,
    i would like to get your opinion about a domain and how the trademark risk could lower the value.
    The domain in question is : ferrari.org.uk
    How much do you think it might be worth?
    How much this affects the potential price?
    Is there an opportunity to sell it?

    Thank you

    Worthless, no one in their right mind would buy this.

    .org.uk is mostly worthless and the trademark is indefensible. Sorry. :(

    It can work for surname so that's the route I'd go. You won't make a fortune but I'd try people on LinkedIn with the surname Ferrari.

    I think you'd be very hard-pressed to find someone with the surname Ferrari, who would want to take a .org off your hands for any more than the wholesale price.
