Frequently Asked Questions

• What could DES 12E represent? +
  Many people would see DES 12E as representing the name or word Desiree or Ssre. As with all personalised number plates, the registration has no official meaning — it is a combination of letters and numbers issued by the DVLA that buyers choose for its personal significance.
• Where is the cheapest place to buy DES 12E? +
  NewReg.co.uk currently lists DES 12E at £14,995, with a total all-in cost from £15,075 including the £80 DVLA transfer fee.

Full DVLA transfer handling is included at no extra charge beyond the £80 DVLA fee. Finance is also available from approximately £1,259 per month (0% APR, subject to status).
• Why are some DES 12E listings priced much lower than the market rate? +
  Some dealers advertise plates with a headline figure such as “from £200”, which can refer to their minimum site-wide price rather than an actual price for DES 12E. The genuine market value of DES 12E reflects its specific characteristics — plate format, letter combination, rarity and any name or word that buyers may associate with it. NewReg lists DES 12E at £14,995 — the true market price — with a price match guarantee: if you find DES 12E legitimately offered cheaper by another UK dealer, we will beat that price.
• What is included when I buy DES 12E from NewReg? +
  Your purchase of DES 12E from NewReg includes: full DVLA transfer service — we handle all paperwork on your behalf at no extra charge beyond the standard DVLA transfer fee, a certificate of entitlement, and road-legal acrylic number plates. The £80 DVLA transfer fee is shown separately at checkout and paid direct to the DVLA. NewReg has been a DVLA-recognised reseller and CNDA member since 1991.
• When was DES 12E first issued? +
  DES 12E was first made available at a DVLA auction in February 2008, when the registration was released to the public for the first time. Separately, the plate format identifies DES 12E as a 1967 registration — this determines which vehicles it can be assigned to. Under DVLA rules, DES 12E can be placed on any vehicle first registered in 1967 or earlier.
• Can I put DES 12E on my car? +
  Under DVLA rules, a number plate cannot make a vehicle appear newer than it is. DES 12E can be assigned to a vehicle first registered in 1967 or earlier — it cannot be placed on a vehicle registered after that date.
