You can get a BHA number plate for as little as £250 looking on thise sites.

Awesome, its gone straight to the top of my Xmas list !

 

[227 BHA]

Buying mine was one of the best investments I have made.

Bought it nearly 10 years ago and its on its 4th car, I'm so used to it now any car wouldn't feel like mine without my BHA plate and its one of the few around that doesn't give the age of the car away.

And I only paid £500

I've been offered 5x that amount but I wouldn't sell

Does it cost anything to put the new plate on your car ?
If so how much ?

FAO Lost In London - I've driven in your dad's V4 BHA motor many times, so I guess I know who you are now! Get back to work. .

DVLA transfer fee is £80 every time you move the plate from 1 vehicle to another.

Not sure of the fee if you put a plate on retention - £100+?

 

[Marshy]

What does a plate on retention mean then ?

What does a plate on retention mean then ?

Means you can keep the number on a retention certificate for a certain length of time (1 year?) without it needing to actually be on a vehicle

 

[Marshy]

ta for that.

Whats the point of having it if your not going to have it on a car !

Im near the bottom of Westmeston Avenue? How close are you then?

I suppose its so that if you sell your car but don't neccessarily want to sell your number with it you can keep the number on "hold" until you get another vehicle.

Don't forget that some number plates are worth more than the vehicle they are on

 

[C1 BHA]

I'm about to go overseas for 3 years.....so my plate's gotta go 'on hold' for all that time, bit of expense I could do without but hey, what's the alternative? Selling my plate is simply NOT an option, never.

 

[seagullsslimjim]

a retention cert costs £25 per year

 

[Merseyside Seagull]

Not wanting to bore anyone, but I've got BH AFC on my car, well B11 AFC if stopped by the old bill!!!

Cost me £600 about 7 years ago.

 

[Citrus]

TC54 BHA

£499!

 

[greengull]

Have to say I have better things to do with £500.
However, it is always useful when going to an away game, as all those ...BHA number plates show you when you are close enough to the stadium to park.
Dont they act as a magnet to opposition fans who want to key a car?

 

[seagullsslimjim]

don't think most of the opposition can read!!

 

[Inkerman]

don't think most of the opposition can read!!

That's always been my assumption - particularly at the most troublesome places with the thickest supporters. Had the car broken into at Ninian Park a few seasons ago but so was the Cardiff supporters next to me so I guess the theory held.
However, if there gets to be too many of them the non readers may start to recognise the patterns.
