Cherished Number Plate Information

Information about cherished number plate H175 AAB.

The registration mark H175 AAB was part DVLA's standard issue release on 01 August 1990

These registrations were not made available for sale. They were put onto newly registered vehicles.

Flashy or decorative fonts are not allowable on Car Registration Plates, and only UK national flags are allowable: any other symbols, such as football team logos or religious symbols may not be displayed on private car number plates. The only variant font allowed on cherished number plates (such as H175 AAB) as an option by the regulations is a 3D version of the standard font. The size and spacing of characters on registration plates is also dictated. More information on cherished number plates character spacing is to be found elsewhere on this website.

The popularity of private car registrations is growing in many ways. The number of people buying personal number plates is higher than ever before, and the prices they are paying for top examples are reaching record levels. There is simply no question that we are seeing a real boom in the appeal of cherished numbers, both as an investment and as a fun aspect to car customisation.

One may choose to display a plate that depicts a name, a favourite hobby or a word that can be associated with one’s job. There are several celebrity examples of this. Sir Alan Sugar owns the highly prestigious registration, AMS 1, which contains his initials, while Linda Lusardi owns LU54 RDY. On the other hand, celebrity chef and TV host, James Martin, chooses to display 6 HEF (chef), which refers to his hobby and profession, while professional boxer, Amir Khan, owns the ideal plate for him: BOX 111G.
