DVLA Personalised Registrations (Private Plates)

Number Plates

Although the term number plates is the most common term used for what we sell, it is not actually the correct definition of our main product. A number plate is actually the piece of perspex or plastic fitted on the front and rear of your car bearing the registration mark of your vehicle. The current font used for UK car registration plates is the Charles Wright font, you may see personalised registration plates with other fonts but they are not legal for UK road use. You may see many plates on vehicles showing the EU band or logo, this is not compulsory within the UK. Motorists without the EU logo may use their National Emblem - England using the English flag, Scottish with Scotland flag and the Welsh with the flag of Wales . You can buy car number plates and sell private plates via our website or via our online number plate auction 24/7!

Private Number Plates ('private plates')

This is basically our previously issued car reg section, when referring to "private registration plates" or private plates we tend to refer to dateless car number plates, sometimes called 'cherished registrations' (search top left). Private plates are personalised plates but they are there for all to see! Remember private plates or cherished number plates are often a very good financial investment.

DVLA - DVLA Number Plates - DVLA Registrations

The DVLA is the organisation of UK Government responsible for maintaining a database of drivers and a database of vehicles in Great Britain; its counterpart in Northern Ireland is the Driver & Vehicle Agency (DVA) for Irish number plates. The DVLA issues driving licenses, organises collection of vehicle excise duty (also known as road tax and road fund license) and sells "cherished numbers" (private number plates). The DVLA started selling personalised registrations in the late eighties holding high value auctions at Christies and Bonhams selling numbers like 1J, 1A, K1 NGS (£240,000). The most expensive number sold at a DVLA personalised registrations auction is 51 NGH which raised £245,000 whistle S1 NGH "only" made £86,000 during a similar auction in 1998 Since then DVLA have played a major role within the personalised registrations industry releasing millions of new numbers into the UK vehicle registrations system. Today, Carreg are DVLA Resellers, you can buy cheap number plates here.
