If you love the idea of having a personalised plate but just don’t have the cash for your dream plate, all may not be lost. Anyone in the UK can legally buy and display an Irish number plate on their vehicle and they are very cheap. Take a look at the Irish plates available from Speedy Reg and you’ll see there’s a great range of personalised plates to choose from, for as little as £40! There’s an added advantage with Irish plates as they are dateless. Their system differs from that of the DVLA, the plates issued in Ireland don’t indicate the year of issue, so if you’re looking for a dateless  plate to hide to age of your vehicle, the cheapest way to do it is to buy an Irish plate. They can be transferred to a vehicle of any age and the process is simple.

Irish number plates are shorter than UK plates so they’re more desirable looking to start with. Any Irish plate will look cool on your car or motorbike, but Speedy Reg have loads of plates so as well as having a short plate, you are bound to find something that means something to you, perhaps your name or initials?

The BBC recently obtained a list of the ten most expensive DVLA number plates under the Freedom of Information Act and it makes for interesting reading.

At number 1 is the plate 1 D. It’s easy to see why this sold for a massive £352,000. It’s short and so looks incredibly cool and it would be desirable for so many people. The number 1 would be preferred over any other number, and anyone whose name begins with D would love this plate and there are plenty of Davids, Debbies and Daniels out there! Coming in at number 2 is 51 NGH that sold for £254,000. This represents the name Singh, a common Asian surname, so again there would be a big market for this plate. The third most expensive plate is 1 RH selling for £247,000, again a nice short plate that would suit anyone with those initials. In fourth place is K1 NGS that sold for £231,000 and the fifth most expensive plate sold was 1 O which went for £210,000.

The sixth most expensive plate was 1 A that sold for £200,000, the seventh was 1 OO going for £197,000, the eighth 2 O selling for £142,000, the ninth 6 B went for £130,000 and finally 1 HRH sold for £113,000 perfect for a member of the Royal Family!

Six times a year you have the chance to buy DVLA number plates at auction. The plates released are the more desirable plates that have a higher level of personalisation than standard DVLA plates and so they have been withheld to be sold at auction to raise money for the treasury. It’s a good chance to snap up a bargain priced personalised number plate, but of course attending an auction can be problematic. You need to be free on the day of the auction. You might have to travel a long way, and you may need to spend quite a bit of extra money on accommodation near the auction and all the other sundries that are involved in a trip away.

We at Speedy Reg attend all these auctions, so we’ll always be at the auction should you want us to bid on your behalf. Because we’re always doing this, we’re also fully experienced in the way the auctions work so you can rely on us to bid on your DVLA number plate of choice. Many other companies will charge you a percentage of the final winning bid, but we make it simple and just charge you a set fee, so you’ll know in advance how much you’ll need to pay us. Of course you’ll be able to set the maximum amount you want to bid and we’ll do our best to get you a bargain.

If you’re getting married soon you might love a romantic number plates for your car as you drive off on your honeymoon. Or do you know someone who is getting hitched?  Then a personalised license plate would make the perfect gift. It needn’t cost you a fortune, there are plates available for as little as £40, or you could club together with other wedding guests and get the lucky couple a highly desirable plate.

Of course you can go for a plate that has their initials on, or perhaps incorporates the wedding date. You could have a plate that declares their love such as 30 LUV or LO57 YOU. You could celebrate the marriage with 12 WED or WED 1M or the fabulous MAR 11Y. E3 HUB would make a great gift for a new hubby, or likewise, 14 MRS would be great for the new Mrs! There are plenty of plates that start with MR or MRS so you may be able to find one with the couple’s surname.

If you buy the newly weds a personalised number plates you can sure that your present will be appreciated and you’re far less likely to duplicate your gift than if you’d opted to get them a toaster or a bale of towels!
