Given that the law compels every motorist on the UK's roads to display an identifying number plate, it is not surprising that people have found ways to turn that limitation into a bit of fun. A compulsory vehicle registration may have been introduced for tedious bureaucratic reasons, but people have come to realise that, by selecting the characters displayed on their plates, they are often able to contrive combinations that look very much like names and words. These personal touches help an otherwise mundane car to stand out from any number of identical vehicles.

Cherished number plates is sometimes seen as an odd choice of description for what we provide to our buyers. Many people prefer the terms 'personalised registration plates' or 'personal car number plates' - but in many cases, cherished number plates (such as BMW 701V) is exactly what they are. It is not at all out of the ordinary for clients to tell us that they have been looking for a specific cherished number plate for some time. There are certain letter and number combinations that have become almost mythical, and which would certainly not lack buyers if they were ever be offered for sale again!

As crime increases, it is now more important than ever to display easily distinguishable number plates. All car registrations must use the standard ‘Charles Wright 2001’ font and, apart from the options of a 3-D effect on the typeface and a non-reflective, coloured border, no alterations to plates are permitted in the UK. This includes the addition of logos or sporting emblems, as well as the misrepresentation or incorrect spacing of characters – these are all illegal.
