Number plates from South Africa
South African number plates are unique for each province in the country, with each area having its own design and colours as well as a unique numbering scheme on their car registrations.
Number plates tend to include a regional identifier as well as a sequential series of numbers and letters, but the exact format varies between provinces. Personalised number plates in South Africa can cost as much as R10,000 (£685) for a registration such as 1 WP, although the standard cost for a set of personal number plates is between R200 (£13.70) and R600 (£41) depending on the issuing province.
