How to Transfer a new number plate to a vehicle?
Transferring to a vehicle is very easy, similar to taxing a vehicle online.
This can be done up to 10 years after purchase if you do not want to assign straight away, are in the process of purchasing a new vehicle, or perhaps buying as a gift.
Which registration is suitable for my car?
Please Note: It is not possible to use a personalised registration to make a vehicle appear newer, e.g. to use a 2008 “08” plate on a 2006 vehicle. However, there are no restrictions on using an older number plate or the same age as the vehicle for which it is registered – You can use a historic (dateless) 1903 number plate on a brand new vehicle, fresh out of the showroom or on a 1960’s, 70’s or 80’s classic!
The rule is simple, If the vehicle was first registered from September 2001 (51 reg) onwards, you can choose from both of the above PREFIX or CURRENT plate styles but If your vehicle is older than Sept 2001, then just select PREFIX or search our cherished numbers and look at dateless, or suffix as both will also be suitable. Dateless number plates are usually much more costly. If you are unsure , give us a call!

We have thousands of cherished number plates available (many are our own stock and can not be bought anywhere else) ranging from original 1903 cherished numbers up to the current issue plates.
