These registration plates can still be used to spell out words, for example: DE51 RED.

However, the letters "I" and "Q" are not allowed, but the letter "Z" can appear as part of the last three characters.

They also include a series of letters that are unique to each registration. The process of buying number plates involves choosing from an extensive collection of private plates available for sale, from government-issued plates from the DVLA to those already released in the UK, saving you time and energy.

Types of Personalised Number Plates

Current Style Number Plates

"The format of the current, or “new style”, plates was designed by the DVLA to make each vehicle’s history more clear. They begin with two letters that denote the region of origin, followed by two numbers to state the age. After the space there are three random letters, which exist so that each car has its own unique identifier.


Prefix Private Plates

Prefix number plates are highly popular among those investing in personalised registrations. The sequence starts with one letter relating to the vehicle’s age. There are then up to three numbers followed by a space, then three letters, which once again ensures a unique combination.


Suffix Private Plates

Suffix number plates preceded prefix plates, and the letter denoting the year is placed at the end rather than the start of the sequence. They were introduced in 1963 in an effort to increase the number of combinations on offer. Due to limited availability, these tend to be among the most expensive type of personalised plate.


Dateless Number plates also known as cherished registration, Personalised Number Plates

Dateless registrations go back further still and are among the most desirable type of personalised plate. They can display numbers or letters first; the latter is sometimes referred to as a “reversed dateless” number plate. In addition, dateless number plates, also known as cherished registrations, were active on vehicles from 1903 - 1962 and featured letters to distinguish from which region it was released, followed by a unique number for vehicle identification purposes.
