Frequently Asked Questions

• What type of number plate is SWA 8S? +
  SWA 8S is a Suffix style number plate (letters + number + letter). Personalised number plates have no official meaning — they are combinations of letters and numbers issued by the DVLA.

  NewReg.co.uk currently lists SWA 8S at £7,835, with a total all-in cost from £7,915 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 £662 per month (0% APR, subject to status).
• Why are some SWA 8S 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 SWA 8S. The genuine market value of SWA 8S reflects its specific characteristics — plate format, letter combination, rarity and any name or word that buyers may associate with it. NewReg lists SWA 8S at £7,835 — the true market price — with a price match guarantee: if you find SWA 8S legitimately offered cheaper by another UK dealer, we will beat that price.
• What is included when I buy SWA 8S from NewReg? +
  Your purchase of SWA 8S 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 SWA 8S first issued? +
  SWA 8S was first made available at a DVLA auction in June 2016, when the registration was released to the public for the first time. Separately, the plate format identifies SWA 8S as a 1977 registration — this determines which vehicles it can be assigned to. Under DVLA rules, SWA 8S can be placed on any vehicle first registered in 1977 or earlier.
• Can I put SWA 8S on my car? +
  Under DVLA rules, a number plate cannot make a vehicle appear newer than it is. SWA 8S can be assigned to a vehicle first registered in 1977 or earlier — it cannot be placed on a vehicle registered after that date.
