When choosing a personalised number plate, one must be aware that the selected registration plate must not be newer than the vehicle it is being paired with. This is because a newer plate on an older car would give the impression that the vehicle is newer than it truly is. This applies to all registration numbers that have age-identifiers (introduced in 1963 to today). However, dateless registrations are also available. These are popular because they are succinct, extremely rare, and can be displayed on any car.
Cherished number plates, such as 2 C, consist of a string of letters and numbers which provide a unique identifying mark for each vehicle licensed to use the roads in the United Kingdom. The number plates used to display this identifying registration number have to conform to strict standards and specifications to ensure legibility and visibility. Recently the regulations pertaining to the display of DVLA registrations have become more and more strict as the authorities attempt to combat crime and traffic offences.
The popularity of personalized car numbers has created a very healthy marketplace. Whereas the majority of owners purchase their numbers for pleasure, there are an increasing number of investment-conscious buyers who acquire their plates with a view to selling them later at a profit. A former BBC Top Gear presenter is widely quoted as having said that a well chosen private number can be better than money in the bank. Certainly some of Britain's most astute business people are converted to the personal registrations cause. Sir Alan Sugar, Duncan Bannatyne, Theo Paphitis - they all own carefully chosen cherished numbers.
