The Private Plate Company

Why choose The Private Plate Company for your DVLA number plates?

Firstly, The Private Plate Company is one of the UK's leading Car Registrations dealers. It all started in 1993 when the owner of the business was interested in buying a private number plate. That plate was MJD 611. Now, all these years later, The Private Plate Company sell around 4,000 private number plates a year.

How did it all happen.

The private number plate MJD 611 was never purchased. Instead, Martyn, the owner bought FWN 333, which was a local number plate, much cheaper. That may sound strange, but the reason was that after trawling through the Exchange and Mart he saw MJD 611 at various prices. Some were as much as £400 cheaper. This is why we are often asked "why have I seen the same car registration numbers for sale elsewhere more expensively?" The answer is that many of the other number plate dealers buy from us and add their profit. The private number plate FWN 333 was purchased, advertised and later sold to a local solicitor.

We trade with many other car registration number dealers and the motor trade which is testament to our quality of service. The same car registration numbers for sale elsewhere are more expensive because you will have to pay for their commission on the sale too. Many car dealerships all over the country arrange private number plates through us on a regular basis due to the speed and efficiency with which we deliver their number plates, and of course, we are much cheaper.

Secondly, we are based in South Wales near DVLA Swansea which could not be more convenient as all transfers need DVLA approval and we hand deliver your documents saving time from delays and backlogs that build up in the postal system.This means that your new car registration numbers will be transferred much quicker with us.

Finally, we are available seven days a week from 9am-7pm. Therefore if you need to ask that all important question, pick up the phone and call us. Thats what we are here for. Advice.
