Make Christmas More Personal - with a personalised number plate
Christmas is fast approaching and people are thinking about what presents to buy their loved ones. Why not avoid the usual box of chocolates, bouquet of flowers or pair of socks, and opt for something more personal? Personalised number plates are a great idea for a Christmas present -they're personalised, one of a kind, and are a great investment - and when it comes to choosing the perfect registration for a friend or family member, the good news is you're not short of options.
If you're on a tight budget you could buy an Irish number. These registrations are dateless and are instantly recognisable, as unlike standard UK plates they contain the letters I or Z. They can be assigned to any car no matter what the age of the vehicle.
Prefix plates are probably the most popular type of number plate. These feature a single letter followed by up to 3 numbers and then 3 letters. Create a truly personal combination using initials, birthdays and names. If you're struggling for ideas you can always use some of the common letter/number substitutions (such as 4 for A, 5 for S, or 12 for R) to give you more scope to play with.
Dateless numbers are probably the most recognisable number plates but can be expensive. These plates feature a group of letters and numbers. As a rule, the fewer letters a plate features, and the lower the numerical digits, the more expensive it will be. For instance, A 1 would fetch hundreds of thousands of pounds while A4633 would cost considerably less. Dateless number plates are perfect for initials and birthdays combined. Reverse dateless combinations are also possible, these feature the numbers before the letters.
If the person you're buying the registration for has a newer car, you can also look at the current style of number plate. These plates are suitable for vehicles registered from late 2001 onwards.
On 7th December 2010 the DVLA will be releasing the new 11 series of number plates which are set to prove a popular choice. Combinations like PO11 ARD and WE11 ARD are possible, with hundreds of other names, surnames and words coming on to the market. Consumers are advised to use a registration service like CapePlates.co.uk to gain a better chance of securing their desired registration.
