A CLOSER LOOK

Bevelled Retro digits

Each Retro character has a broad sloping edge around its face. This gives a different side profile from plain 4D acrylic. Use the product photograph to compare the edges before choosing.

Retro versus plain 4D

The broad bevel around each Retro digit is the distinguishing detail. Plain 4D has a flatter face with straight sides. Compare the photographs from an angle to see the difference.

Looking for black-and-silver plates?

Retro here describes a black digit finish, not a historic black-and-silver plate. The product name does not establish that a vehicle qualifies for historic plate rules. Contact us if that is the type you need.

What documents will I need?

We need proof of your name and address, plus proof that you can use the registration. A driving licence and a matching V5C are one example. A V750 or V778 can also prove entitlement. Our document guide explains the alternatives.
