Irish Number Plates

Irish Number Plates - Dateless and attractive

Irish number platesMore and more people are now realising the potential of Irish number plates, which can be legally transferred onto vehicles in England, Scotland or Wales.

The main attraction of Irish number plates is that the numbering sequence is different from that in the rest of the UK. Therefore, Irish number plates offer an inexpensive way of having a dateless registration on your car. Of course, dateless registrations may be assigned to a vehicle of any age, which makes Irish number plates even more attractive to prospective buyers.

It is worth noting, however, that the term 'Irish number plates' refers to plates issued in Northern Ireland, as opposed to the Republic of Ireland. In fact, registrations issued in the Republic of Ireland cannot be transferred to cars in Britain, nor can British registrations be transfered to the Republic of Ireland.

Irish number plates contain the letters I and Z, which generally aren't used on British number plates. It's for this reason that many people find Irish number plates particularly attractive. If your initials contain an I or Z, you don't really have any other alternative! And with prices starting at just £95, who's to complain? You could have your ultimate personalised registration for under one hundred pounds!

Irish number platesIt's these letters that make certain attractive combinations - BAZ, GAZ, BIG, ZIT, and DIG are just some of the letter combinations that can be made with Irish number plates, and unsurprisingly, it's these combinations that can fetch a little more than the £95 starting price of regular Irish registrations!

Irish number plates offer a superb, cost-effective way of hiding the age of your car - a luxury which sadly isn't available with DVLA number plates. With literally thousands of combinations available on Irish plates, many people see them as a way of hiding the age of your car and personalising your vehicle without appearing overtly 'snobbish'.

The transfer process for Irish number plates is slightly more complicated than for other personalised registrations, but if you buy your Irish number plate through a reputable dealer, such as Regtransfers.co.uk, they will handle all the paperwork throughout the transfer process.
