Plate Details

C4 GED is a prefix-style registration, identified by the letter C at the start of the plate. The prefix letter C corresponds to the 1985 registration period. Under DVLA rules, this plate can be assigned to any vehicle first registered in 1985 or earlier. Prefix plates were issued between 1983 and 2001 and remain popular for their clean, readable format.

Personalised number plates are a tangible, portable asset. Unlike most purchases, a desirable plate retains and can appreciate in value over time.
