Found these if anybody is interested you could change the space between the W and the UP so it would read V(number)W UP, clearer

Never had a private plate, might look into one at some point.

Great idea until one day you want to change make of cars. I know you wont want to, but never is a along time

You can always sell it when no longer required. If you pick a good one, they only go up in value

Good spot
I agree I bought a private plate in 1999 for £600 today worth £3500-£4000 now
