The DVLA conducts online Personalised Registrations Auctions approximately ten times a year, showcasing a selection of prestigious registrations. These often include names, meaningful words, short dateless registrations, as well as makes and models of vehicles. An organised catalogue is provided, listing the registrations in alphabetical order alongside their respective reserve prices, available in both Excel and PDF formats.

Requesting an unused personalised registration is straightforward via the DVLA website or their official Facebook page. The waiting period for the release of these registrations can vary, ranging from three to nine months or even up to twelve months in some cases. At ShortReg, we can verify the eligibility of a registration for auction release and provide you with an estimated hammer price based on recent sales of similar registrations, alongside the expertise of our knowledgeable staff. Should our estimate align with your budget, we can facilitate the registration’s release and bid on your behalf during the auction. We apply a fixed fee, rather than a percentage, with the exact amount varying depending on the specific registration.

Since 2017, we have been actively participating in DVLA auctions, both for our stock and on behalf of our clients and friends. We are always happy to discuss your ideal registration, so please feel free to contact our office on 020 8087 1777.
