FAQ

Common questions

Are private number plates a good investment?

Investment-grade plates — short dateless combinations and single-digit plates — have demonstrated strong appreciation. They're a finite asset whose value tracks demand from luxury vehicle owners and collectors.

What makes a plate investment-grade?

Four factors: short length (two or three characters), dateless status (fits any vehicle), high readability (spells a name, word, or initials), and historical provenance (ownership chain, matching documents).

How do I store a plate while I'm not using it?

Plates can be held on retention via DVLA's V778 document for up to ten years at a time, renewable indefinitely. We can assist with retention and storage arrangements for every plate we sell.
