Our Range & Quality
At Classic Number Plate we use the latest high tech equipment to design, build and manufacture your number plates or show plate. All our plates are manufactured to a very high standard.
Signs and Show Plates
If you require a differently spaced or designed number plate then this must be sold as a ´sign´, for ´off road´ use (show plate). We place a disclaimer on the back of the plate advising you that it is sold as a sign, not a number plate and it is not to be fitted to a car using the U.K. roads. We have just added to our range Classic American Plates using the American Font. Vintage German Plates are also available from us, along with Classic pressed French plates. Please note: Due to current British number Plate legislation, all our show plates are now shipped from the Republic of Ireland (Co.Wexford), this means your order WILL take longer to arrive! (please allow between 3-15 working days)Road Legal Number Plates
There are only four fonts that are permitted on road legal number plates. The first was introduced in 1894 which was the hand painted font, this was from 1894 - 1919. Then in the 1920's - 1964 the 3-1/2" digit was used; this was first made on solid cast aluminium, then went on to be die pressed plates from 1930's, using 5" high plates. This then got changed in 1964 to the standard OLD font (Charles Wright) which was used up to September 2001, and had a digit height of (3-1/8"). We stock this digit and the new one that came into force in 2001. With our European laws that came into effect Britain decided to change to our current font (New Charles Wright) which complies to BSAU145d. This was introduced because most registrations consisted of 7 characters, and this left no room on a number plate for a European flag (or Country of choice).
The spacing of the numbers and letters on your road legal number plate must match that printed in your V5 logbook (registration document). If you want to know the legal requirements for your number plates then please visit the DVLA website to find out what you can have on your Vintage plate. If you choose to order a road legal number plate through our plate maker, it will only show you legal options.

Our pressed plates are made of the highest quality materials sourced from suppliers in the Europe, thus resulting in the best quality plates at a price that won´t leave you feeling ripped off. Our number plates come with a 12 month guarantee; they will not rust or deteriorate. We recommend that all number plates supplied, are fixed to the car or motorcycle using our range of Poly Top screws, these are heavy duty and have a protective nylon head. All the fixings you will need are available for you to select after you have selected your plates. When you buy plates from us we want you to be happy with the results.
