Many of us are now choosing to add a touch of our personality to our cars with things like initials, lucky numbers, football teams…the possibilities are endless! However, they do need approving by the DVLA first which is why some people’s cherished number plates are receiving the no-no from the DVLA.
Like with everything there is always someone that tries to push their luck when it comes to choosing their own personal number plates, and the DVLA is used to receiving some requests of the more bizarre nature. Some number plates have been deemed too rude to place on cars and include things like; L4 TEX and STR 11P. Well, it was worth a try wasn’t it!
Equally, some football fans are very keen to show their undying support for their football team, and what better way to do this than to personalise your number plate. One West Ham fanatic paid out a staggering £57,000 for the number plate WE57 HAM. However, whatever car he owns from now on will display his cherished number plate and there will be no question as to who he supports when he drives past!
Whilst some personalised number plate stories may seem a little extreme they are just an elite few. Personal number plates in the majority of cases allow you to purchase something that can literally last you a lifetime and you’ll never have the problem of trying to remember your car number plate ever again! Here at Platinum Plates we believe there is a private number plate especially for you and with our easy to use “Create-a-plate” feature you could be designing your very own cherished number plate in no time!
