The 5th Day of December was an important one in the personalised number plate business. Why I hear you ask? I’ll tell you.
It was when the next series of numbers – 12 – were released.
The formation of the ’12’ numbers has caused a lot of excitement within the personalised number plate world. As is often the case with number plates, you can substitute numbers for letters and letters for numbers to spell a word.
’12’ is the ideal substitute for R.
Now you can have any word that has a ‘R’ in it. There are actually over 7.5 million combinations to choose from. That’s a whopping number and in this article, we couldn’t cover that amount of words. But here are a few to get your creative juices flowing. I’ve broken them into a number of categories so you can pick and choose your favourite.
Businesses
Personalised number plates are a great way to promote your business offline. With so many businesses focused on building their business online, you can easily differentiate yourself with a plate that promotes your business. Above all, it creates interest and you never know when someone is looking for your services.
