Cheap Number Plates

What are Cheap Number Plates?

Quite simply, they are number plates that don’t break the bank.  We have thousands of affordable dateless options available from just £65 plus transfer fees.  We also have a database of 65+million with prices from £154+VAT

Cheap number plates come in various combinations and are usually what we call ‘dateless’ number plates. They are a combination of letters and numbers that do not really match the drivers initials (some containing obscure letters like I, U, X, Y and Z) and do not mean anything to the driver/owner.
The Land Rover vehicle image at the top of this page is a fine example of a low cost 3x3 dateless number plate using initials XBG.  Often they are used to remove the age identifier, disguising a vehicles age so therefore are sometimes called ‘cover’ registrations.
Less common initials are generally far cheaper than those initials which are shared by many people across the United Kingdom. (example UHY, compared to AMS).
