FAQs

  • Why are popular plates so expensive?

    The more sought-after and unique a number plate is, the higher the price tag. Rarity and exclusivity are key drivers of value, with the most elite plates fetching over £500,000. A prime example is “25 O”, which sold for a staggering £518,000 in 2014.

    Just like those ultra-rare plates, the most popular and sought-after number plates command the highest prices. If the letters perfectly match a popular phrase, expect to pay a premium. But don’t worry, with a little creative thinking, you can still find the personalised plate without emptying your wallet.

  • What are the rules for purchasing popular number plates?

    The same rules apply to all number plates. You can’t use a number plate to make your vehicle seem newer than it is. For instance, if your car was registered in 2020 and you’re after a plate that reads “dad,” you wouldn’t be able to get “DA 22 DAD”. This is because the “22” registration would falsely suggest your car is from 2022.

  • How do you transfer a number plate?

    Transferring your new number plate onto your car doesn’t need to be a hassle. The process is relatively straightforward — there are four main requirements your vehicle must have:

    • An MOT
    • It must be operable
    • You must have proof of tax
    • It needs to be available for inspection.

    Assigning the funny number plate to your car can then be completed quickly and easily online. You’ll just need the certificate of entitlement or retention with the registration number on it and your car’s V5C registration document. As soon as your application is accepted, you can start using your cherished plate.

  • What if I can’t find my perfect plate on this page?

    If you haven’t found quite what you were looking for here, you can use our search bar to find a registration. It will find plates that either match or closely match your ideal word at varying price points.

You’ll find answers to other questions on our main FAQs page.
