REGISTRATION NUMBER PLATES OF THE UNITED KINGDOM MADE BY PREMIER NUMBER PLATES
Although the look and layout of number plates may have changed since they were introduced, they have been around for over 100 years. The first vehicle registration was issued way back in 1902. The number plate of A1 was issued in London, although number plates have come on leaps and bounds since then. There have been several different formats of number plates and vehicle registrations since then, although they all have the same purpose.
Even though the format of number plates may have changed, there are still several rules in place to make sure that everything is done correctly. At the end of the day number plates are there for a reason, so it makes sense that there are regulations behind this to ensure that everything is done correctly. There are different rules depending on when a vehicle was manufactured or when a number plate was fitted, so you might need to do a little research if you are unsure. For example most number plates have to have a yellow or black plate, however if your vehicle was made before September 1972 it can have a black or grey number plate.
Vehicles made after this date have different rules - the front plate has to be white and the back plate must be yellow. The number plates themselves must be made from reflective material; the font should be black and the mandatory typeface. Details of all of this can be easily found so you should be able to check your number plate is up to scratch before you go ahead. In fact if you contact a company that offers to make up number plates, they should take care of all of this for you – so you know that you don’t have to worry about being in trouble when you are out and about in your vehicle.
When it comes to spicing up your number plate..
It can be done but there are several exclusions. For example you can not include custom photos, manufacture car logos, football club badges are all banned from registration number plates. You can however include the Euro Badge, the GB national identifier and its regional alternatives for Scotland, England "&" Wales provided they meet the EC Council regulation 2411/98. This Regulation states the size and material the Euro symbol should be made from when used as part of the Reg Plates .Some of this might seem confusing which is why it is important to get an expert on board. At the end of the day you don’t want to risk getting it wrong and landing yourself in trouble. Rather than take this risk, simply use a legitimate number plate printing company to take care of your needs for you. At least when you use a company that knows what they are doing you can feel confident that everything will be done to the letter of the law and you won’t have anything to worry about.
Remember as well that the quality and finish of your number plate is also important. Be sure to question a company about the quality of their products, because you don’t want to waste your money on something that isn’t going to give you good value for money.
