The formation of the ’12′ numbers has caused a lot of excitement within the personalised number plate world. As is often the case with number plates, you can substitute numbers for letters and letters for numbers to spell a word.

But here are a few to get your creative juices flowing. I’ve broken them into a number of categories so you can pick and choose your favourite.

Personalised number plates allow it’s owner to show their individuality. It might read some thing very obvious or it may be something personal. But whatever the message, it’s clear that anyone can get one these days. Once associated with the rich and famous, personalised number plates are now incredibly more accessible.

There are a number of reasons to buy a personalised number plate – investment, fun and promotion come to mind straight away.

And with prices as low as £50, you can search for and buy a number plate online. No hassle, no fuss and it can be all done from the comfort of your own home or office. And these days, you can order it practically anywhere from a mobile device, smart phone or notepad.

Regardless of where you buy it, there are a few things that you should look out for when buying online.

Longevity

The track record of your supplier is important. While every business has to start somewhere, it is important to check how long a company has been trading. If a company has been trading for a long time, they have a proven track record, happy customers and repeat business.

They will not be willing to see you a personalised number plate if all the right credential are not in order.

Accreditation

Make sure the supplier you’ve chosen to buy your personalised number plate online with has a number of accreditations. These include:

• DVLA Number Plate Supplier Register
• CNDA – Cherished Number Dealers Association
• RMIF – Retail Motor Industry Federation
• Institute of Registration Agents and Dealers
• Federation of Small Businesses
• RNC – Registration Numbers Club
• Association of Personalised Registration Traders

Again, it goes to the credibility of the company. If they are affiliated or associated with the above associations, then you can be sure that they protect their professional reputation.

Online security

It is so, so important that you know the supplier has a secure site with a digital certificate to accept payments online. You don’t want to give your credit or debit details to a company that doesn’t have such stringent security. Most websites who accept your card is secured using what’s known as SSL encryption technology. Originally designed by the US military, it keeps internet fraud at bay.

Make sure the website has at least 128 SSL encryption. If you want to know what type of security your supplier has, then you can check it out. Most have a little lock on the bottom right of the browser. If you right click it, then a description pops up.

In summary, it’s easy and hassle free to buy online. But be wary of the supplier that are out there. Always buy from a trustworthy company.

The only girl group to get through to any final of the X Factor was mentored by none other than Tulisa Contostavlos, Little Mix. 2011 is the first year that Tulisa was a judge on the X-factor, in it’s eighth series of the highly popular show. It was a case of the young ones on this year’s X Factor with acts mentored by the new judges all getting through to the final. Amelia Lilly is mentored by Kelly Rowland and Marcus Collins by Gary Barlow.

In honour of Tulisa’s fantastic and massive achievement we have the ideal number plate for her – TUI 1585.

Personalised number plates are a great way to show off the individuality of the person who owns a number plate. The personalised number plate can be really obvious so that everyone understands it, e.g., AMS 1 for Lord Alan Sugar. They can also be not so obvious to the masses but as long as they are understood by the owner, then that is what matters.

Having a personalised number plate that displays your interest or hobbies or name with a  mixture of letters and number or numbers that represent letters help keep the cost of your personalised number plate down. They make ideal gifts to yourself or to others. They’re also great for branding, marketing and promotion.

And here at Speedyreg, we’re mad about Tulisa and think that TUI 1585 would be perfect on her car.

So just exactly who is Tulisa?

Well would you believe that her name is actually Tula Paulinea Contostavlos. She is 23 years old and for those of you interested in the star signs, she is a Cancerian. She was born 13 July 1988. Her mum is Irish and her Dad is Greek so what a great combination of creativity that is.

When she isn’t judging and mentoring on the X Factor, she is busy being a singer-songwriter and actress. She is probably better known for her involvement with the group N-Dubz. This Camden-based hip hop group also includes her cousin Dappy and her friend Fazer, with whom she was romantically linked.

The band has been incredibly busy over the last three years – releasing three albums in three years. No mean feat. These include Uncle B in 2008, Against All Odds in 2009 and Love.Live.Life in 2011.

This year she started work on her solo album.

Her acting career is also shining bright. She stared in TV Series Dubplate Drama and played the role of a cocaine addict, Laurissa. However she is about to hit the big screen with an upcoming film Bulla which she’ll play herself and Demons Never Die by Arjun Rose.

We’re incredibly proud of her success on the X Factor – for us, she has the X Factor. TUI 1585 would suit her car perfectly. It’s simple and understated – just like the girl herself.
