What will you have on your number plate this Spring?

Christmas comes each year and with it comes the season of gift-giving. We all want to give our loved ones, friends and family a token of how we feel about them and how much they are appreciated.

But it seems that every year, it gets harder and harder. To the person who has everything, what can you get them? What will be a unique gift for them? And perhaps more importantly, given the economic climate that we are living in, what to get as a unique and cheap gift for Christmas?

Personalised number plates

An answer to this particular problem might be easier than you think. Personalised number plates have become more popular over the years and despite the headline news of large amounts being spent, there are good bargains to be had.

With over 31 million cars on British roads as per road statistics at the end of 2009, private, personalised or cherished marks allow a car to be unique, to stand out from the crowd or have its own identity in the world.

Here are some ideas to help you buy a unique and cheap gift this Christmas:

1. Sentimental Personalised Plates

If you opt for a personalised number plate that is sentimental in nature rather than much in demand, the price will be much cheaper. If the plate reads something personal to your giftee, then they will use it for a long time. Typically, plates that don’t immediately mean something to the masses but do mean something to the owner are cheaper. They’ll make a perfect unique and cheap gift this Christmas.

2. Personalised Name Plates

You could also opt to buy a plate that has your giftee’s name on it. What could be more special than having your own name on a plate? It shows that you care and recognise their individuality. We can help you get the right combination of numbers and digits. Here are some ideas to help you:

• MP54 RAH for Sarah
• JUII ETT for Juliet

• 12 ORY for Rory
• SUS 14N for Susan

If you find that some name plates are a bit out of your budget, have a look at initials. Plates that contain year letters typically will sell for less than dateless ones. So put your initials at the front, combine it with perhaps your year of birth and you’ll have an ideal gift for Christmas. The three digits at the end can then be random numbers.

• DF61 ABC
• JH 51 DEF

3. Interest or hobby plates

People the length and breadth of UK and Ireland have hobbies and extra curricular activities outside of the family and work. Fishing, music, gardening, art, bird-watching are among our favourite pastimes. Your giftee would really appreciate seeing their beloved hobby on their plate. You can try something like these:

• WA11 YYN
• FL54 SHY
• DF57 MUS

4. Cheap Dateless Number Plates

If your finding it difficult to find your loved one’s name on a Personalised Number Plates, or maybe it is out of your Budget, why not opt to purchase a registration that would hide the age of there vehicle. You can obtain a Dateless registration from as little as £50, for example:

• DRZ 1339
• JIG 3815
• KIG 1831

 In summary, these are just four ideas to help you give a unique and cheap gift this Christmas. If you talk to an authorised registration company, they can give you even more suggestions. Happy Christmas shopping.

 

Cherished number plates have been around for a number of years now but their popularity has never been higher than it is today. The demand for personalised plates is at an all time high and as a result, record prices are currently changing hands. 

Typically, a cherished number plate will include your initials, somewhere in the combination of letters and numbers. However, prices will vary greatly depending on that specific combination, so for example, you will find yourself paying more for a plate that reads A1 ABC than you would for say, A857 ABC. 

Sometimes known as vanity plates, this type of vanity is essentially why they are so popular, although there is another handy advantage in that nobody can tell the age of your car! Over the years, some phenomenal amounts of money have changed hands for the more interesting plates. 

The record currently stands at an incredible £352,000 which was paid by a Lebanese property developer back in March 2009 for the number plate 1 D. It was intended as a present for his wife and was to be placed on her treasured Bentley. Previously, in 1993, the registration number K1 NGS sold for £233,000 at auction. 

The number plate in question was sold at an auction organised by the Driver Vehicle and Licensing Agency in England. The DVLA regularly hold such auctions and this is a good way to pick up some of the more unusual plates but prices as a whole can often be prohibitive. 

There are many other places to look for private number plates and online classified sites may be a good place to start. Similarly, printed publications that cover the motor industry, as well as those that are just published for the purpose of printing classified ads are well worth a look. 

The practise of using personalised plates has been around almost since license plates were first introduced, but it has grown considerably in the last fifty years or so. 

In 1963 in the UK, standardised registrations were introduced with suffix letters put in place depending on the year that the car was manufactured. This started with the letter A in 1963 and ended with Y twenty years later before the system was changed to use letters as prefixes. 

The 1960`s was therefore the time when it became popular to seek out numbers that were personal to the car owner and it was around this period that cherished license plate clubs and organisations were formed. 

Remember, that when you`re buying a plate, it must conform to police regulations: Certain lettering styles and fonts aren`t allowed and above all, your plate must be legible. Some owners have been known to turn the letter `m` upside down and turn it into a `w` and that it completely against the law, so make sure you stay within the rules. 

A final tip when you`re searching for the right plate is to look at buying a car and check out the registration that comes with it. Very occasionally you will see that the plate matches what you`re looking for and the package is cheaper as a result. So keep looking for a Honda for sale on Netcars.com as you never know what might turn up.

People’s fascination with celebrity and celebrity culture continues to grow. Every week, our magazine shelves are filled with celebrity magazines such as People (US), Hello (Global), OK (UK) and VIP (Ireland). They are completely, back to back, stuffed full of gossip and news and all the latest fashion tips to model our favourite celebrity.

Many fans of celebrities want to know everything about their faves – from what they had for breakfast to what they wear to bed. And this celebrity obsession has spilled into personalised number plates.

Many celebrity fans or watchers want to know what car they drive and what their number plate is. If they know their number plate, then the chances are they’ll get a glimpse of their idol or indeed get a chance to meet them.

Some personalised plates are well-known and have been in the public domain for a long time. The one that springs to mind immediately is Lord Alan Sugar. Since doing The Apprentice series on BBC, which began back in 2005, we have seen Lord Sugar’s car with the wonderful number plate AMS 1. (Although he could move onto a new one with his elevation to Lord Sugar).

Other celebrities or well-known faces have chosen well in terms of their number plates. The magician Paul Daniels who dazzled the UK nation every week (practically) from 1979 to 1994 with ‘The Paul Daniels Magic Show’ has a number plate that represents him perfectly. It is MAG 1C.

Similarly, Jimmy Tarbuck, the inimitable UK comic and quiz-master who has entertained the nation since first jumping on our screens in 1964 has a wonderful number plate – COM IC.

And it’s not just comedians or magicians who use number plates that represent them. Sporting stars such as Amir Khan bought the ideal number plate – BOX IIG. This young boxer is certainly one to follow – after winning silver at the 2004 Athens Olympics at the tender age of 17.

Businesses regularly use number plates to promote their business, product or services. TV’s Dragon Theo Paphitis of Dragon’s Den fame has a number plate which promotes his stationery business – RYM 4N for Ryman, the largest British stationery retailer.   

While some celebrity cars and number plates are well-known, others opt for privacy. The privacy of a personalised number plate allows them to drive a car with a plate that means something to them, rather than anyone else. Number plates that have a lower number of figures or digits or letters on a plate are always more expensive as there is a limited number of them. e.g., You can only have so many combinations of JH with a single digit, JH 1, JH 2, JH3, etc.

For example, VIP 1 which was used by Pope John Paul II during his tour of Ireland in 1979 was bought by Roman Abramovich for over £250,000.

Christiano Ronaldo bought CR7 which represented his number on the Man United shirt.

What has become apparent in the past several years is that it isn’t just real fans who are obsessed with meeting their fans. The rise of celebrity culture has seen a rise in the paparazzi. Unfortunately personalised number plates often give away the identify of a celebrity and some are selling their cherished number plate.

And of course, celebrities change their hairstyles, their partners and their sponsors often so who knows – maybe they change their number plates often too.

The next time you see a car that you think has a celebrity personalised plate, think twice about approaching it. The owner might not be who you think it is.

Moving to a new country can sometimes be very intimating.  Not knowing where to find the things that we all take for granted in the UK.

For example , if you would like change your car, when you are in the UK you simply look in the Autotrader, but when you move to France where do you begin to search??

No need to panic as we would recommend www.gtliens.com, for all your motoring needs when you are in France. GTliens is full of information about selling your vehicle, buying a used vehicle and buying a new vehicle.

Gtliens also has a great section called Services, with information on Car Insurance, Fuel Prices within France and numberplates that are being issued that day. Still can’t find your answer, then you can ask their Auto Forum.  In my opinion Gtliens is used in France the same way Auto Trader is used in the UK.

Can you recommend any other car websites for another country?

Déplacement en France et à la recherche d’un véhicule?

 Déménager dans un nouveau pays peut parfois être très intimidant. Ne sachant pas où trouver les choses que nous tenons tous pour acquis au Royaume-Uni.

 Par exemple, si vous désirez changer votre voiture, quand vous êtes au Royaume-Uni il vous suffit de regarder dans le Autotrader, mais lorsque vous vous déplacez vers la France où allez-vous commencer à chercher?

 Pas de panique que nous recommandons http://www.gtliens.com/, pour tous vos besoins automobile lorsque vous êtes en France. GTliens est plein d’informations sur la vente de votre véhicule, l’achat d’un véhicule d’occasion et d’acheter un nouveau véhicule.

 Gtliens a également une grande section intitulée Services, avec des informations sur l’assurance automobile, Prix des carburants en France. Vous ne trouvez pas votre réponse, alors vous pouvez demander à leur Forum Auto. Dans mon opinion Gtliens est utilisé en France de la même manière Trader Auto est utilisé au Royaume-Uni.
