Ferrari owners for starters are going to want to get their hands on some F registrations for their “F cars”

The prefix F1 - in the aftermath of Mr. Khan purchasing the registration for such a collossal amount- will have either an increased starting price; or an increased demand - or both.

Some great F1 combinations include:

F1 FER
F1 ACE
F1 MAN
F1 LEW (Lewis hamilton)

As a lot of the better quality number plates may have already been auctioned by the DVLA - number plate buyers will have to use their ingenuity and autonumerology to work out the best combinations.

Words in the new number plate series such as F3VER and F31STY have already gone under the hammer and it’s possible others simply wont be offered for sale or witheld for future auctions.

At first glance - f plates will appeal :

F1 is for motor racing fans
F4 numberplates will appeal to the IT crowd

It’s possible that any prefix F number plate could be used to make a rude or illegal numberplates obviously there is spelling the F word itself- but also combinations of F-off and F-you could creep in.

So we will wait until October with baited breath until the DVLA put us out of our misery and the last in the series of prefix number plates is finally released

Are there any good F prefix numberplates left?

Yes you will I’m afraid.

Depending on which MOT centre you visit and how leanient the tester is you will fail an MOT with an illegal numberplate

To save the hassle of having to have your car fail the MOT and go for a retest you are wise to ensure your registration plates meet the standard

Is my numberplate illegal?

If you find that your plates are illegal you will need to have a set of numberplates made- find your nearest RNPS (registered number plate supplier)

It’s also worth considering you may attract the police’s attention and get pulled for having an illegal plate

So be safe, not sorry- check your plates and make sure you meet the guidelines.

wanted number plate adverts are the answer - Smashing Plates are currently the first and only place in the UK to place a wanted advert for your ideal number plate.

Knowing where to buy numberplates helps when you are on the hunt for that ideal combination but as ever increasing numbers of great combinations have been snapped up or aren’t affordable- so wanted advertising fills the gap.

Why spend time continually checking with the dealers and classifieds when you can let the seller come to you!

Despite the colourfull language (**** of the month etc..) there is a serious point here to be made about illegal numberplates and the fact that thay are now on every street corner and show no signs of slowing.

The DVLA and Police claim to be cracking down on reg plate alterations but I think the message has yet to get through.

Clearly if a plate reads as it shouldn’t then there are all sorts of implications- not only for numberplate recognition but also when selling a numberplate if it needs mis-spacing then this will affect the value of the plate.

I guess the main reason for illegal reg plates is because the ideal combination is unavailable or too expensive- I would suggest a little more creativity when searching for a numberplate as there are so many millions of great combinations.

The days are numbered for illegal plates but I fear they will be around for a little longer.
