20-year number plate search ends successfully

Mr Neufville from Letchworth in Hertfordshire has been looking for a number plate with his initials, S.P.N. for over twenty years! Searching through lists of number plates in the Sunday newspapers had become part of his weekly routine until he decided to telephone the UK's premier number plate dealer, Regtransfers.co.uk, to see if they could help him.

One of the top sales women at Regtransfers.co.uk, Simone Davies, took Mr. Neufville's call. "After explaining to me that he was looking for a number plate that included his initials SPN, I asked Mr. Neufville what his budget was.
I checked through our computerised network system, and recommended the M12 and M15 style plates, which are a very popular, fun and an inexpensive way of owning a personalised number plate."

Mr. Seaford Patrick Neufville didn't want a plate with PAT or PN, which perhaps would have been the most obvious choices. Instead, he says: "The 'Mister' plate M12 SPN was an excellent idea, much more subtle, and one that I had not considered before. Top marks to Regtransfers for such helpful sales staff!"

After a search that has been as enduring as his marriage, Mr. Neufville bought the number plate as a 25th wedding anniversary present - to himself! It now sits proudly on his immaculate black Honda Prelude. We certainly think he deserves it and he definitely thinks it was worth the wait!
