You can follow in the footsteps of celebrities by driving around with a personalised number plate. But there are many other reasons for getting a private registration plate besides emulating the stars.

You Can Have Your Name on Your Car

A private registration plate enables you to make your car more personal. One popular way of creating a personal touch is to have a plate that displays your name, nickname, or initials. For example, if your name is John, you could get a plate such as X666 JHN or JHNN13. Placing your name on your number plate is a fantastic way to make a subtle but big statement.  It will also make your car look more prestigious. However, you might find yourself in need of transferring your private number plate. If this happens to be your case, make sure you know everything you need to do to assign a number plate to a new vehicle.

You Can Name Your Car

Instead of placing your name on your number plate, you could have fun by naming your car. Whether you want to call your automobile Bessy, Herbie, or Jet, you will be able to find a number plate that reflects your choice. At Absolute Reg, you can choose from more than 45 million registration plates, which is more than any other dealer. And the company’s simple state-of-the-art search facility enables you to browse a huge range of private plates with the utmost ease. Naming your car will be a great conversation starter, and there is no limit as to what kind of name you can up with.

You Can Identify with a Passion

Personalised private registration plates are not limited to names. You can choose digits to show off your passion. Whether you love football, food, Star Wars or Metallica, a personalised number plate can showcase your passion. You may like to add a decal or sticker to your car that also depicts your favourite thing. For instance, if you have a love of Back to the Future, just imagine how cool your car would look with a Back to the Future arrow sticker on the side and a number plate that reads BTTF 85. And if you manage to get hold of a DeLorean, it would look super cool! Whatever your passion is, you will be able to find a suitable plate.

You Can Disguise Your Car’s Age

Unlike typical number plates that have the date of the car encoded in the numbers and letters, private registration plates do not usually indicate the date of manufacture. So, if you have an old car that you are worried will not impress someone like an interviewer or a date, you can easily disguise your car’s age with a personalised number plate. As long as your car remains in good condition, it can appear to be ageless for as long as you want.

A Private Registration Plate Can Be a Great Investment

Because private number plates are unique, they are often fantastic investments. It is not a case of having to spend a fortune either. Personalised registration plates are available at a very wide range of price-points. So, you can potentially enjoy your personalised plate for several years and then make a healthy profit by selling on. Choose your plates wisely, and you could make a handsome profit.
