Show Plates

For the Personalised Touch

Typically, show plates are found attached to vehicles in car show rooms (hence the name "show plate") to catch the eyes of potential customers. A common use of a show plate in a showroom context is to advertise the make or model of the car it's attached to, for example, the registration "911" for a Porsche 911.

However, the term show plate has come to mean any number plate that doesn't meet legal UK road specifications. Show plates are a unique and creative way to personalise your vehicle. They share similar characteristics with regular number plates but have undergone non-legal modifications to make them appear more distinctive. For example, inserting extra spaces in the registration or including a custom bottom line (slogan) to give your plates a bespoke feel.

Our show plate designer allows for these adjustments, giving you the freedom to create a truly one-of-a-kind design. However, show plates are sold as novelty items for private use. Customers attach show plates to their vehicle at their own risk.

Place your order before 2:30 PM on a working day and we'll aim to despatch your new show plates on the same day!

Alternatively you can use this website to design road-legal number plates too.
