Number Plates

At Ashcroft MOT Station, we provide a full range of car repairs and servicing and are also DVLA-approved to supply and fit number plates at our Kirkby, Liverpool, site.

Whether you require additional plates for a caravan or trailer or need replacement plates for faded or damaged ones, Ashcroft MOT Station has got you covered.

Number plates have to meet certain requirements to be legal, and if you’re found driving a vehicle with plates that don’t meet those standards, you could end up with a hefty fine. Here are some guidelines below, but if you’re still not sure if your number plates are legal or if they need to be replaced, give our team at Ashcroft MOT Station a call on 0151 546 0342 and we’ll be happy to help with any questions or concerns.

What are the rules on number plates?

  • The number plate needs to be the correct colour for the age or registration of the vehicle, with a white background on the front plate and a yellow background on the rear plate.
  • The numbers and letters need to be black, have the correct font and have the correct spacing between them, and there must be no background pattern
  • There must be no damage or anything hiding the registration number
  • The numbers cannot be altered in any way so that they appear like a different character

For us to supply you with number plates, you’ll need to provide original documents that verify your identity, address and entitlement to use the registration number. For a full list of acceptable documents for proof of identity and eligibility, please refer to this link to the government website.
