Registrations to suit all tastes and budgets

October 6, 2015 Blog Editor

A private or personalised registration does not necessarily have to be one that says or spells your name it may not even necessarily have to be one that shows your initials or even your surname.

Do you think the DVLA will issue SH17 *** number plates in 2017?

October 3, 2015 Blog Editor

2017 will bring about a problem for the DVLA as SH17 plates will become available unless they intervene. We wonder if they will? A team of sensors at the DVLA meet every six months to discuss such issues. It's usually one off plates that are banned such as VA61ANA, SL05 HED and JE55 US.

Also any plates relating to alcohol are banned, hence you can't

A personalised number plate, is a license plate that has been specifically chosen by the owner. Usually, when you buy a car, be it brand new or second hand, you don't have any choice over the plate you get on that car.

It's likely to have an obvious meaning. Names are popular, such as 53 BEN, VAL 406 and 616 D

Hide the age of your vehicle from as little as £40

August 23, 2015 Blog Editor
