Personalised Number Plates - Some Are Lucky...

Which Personalised Number Plates Are Lucky?

You would think the actual number on your personalised number plates would be irrelevant to most peoples but our research this definitely not the case. For example a Chinese car owner would definitely not buy private number plates with 444 on the plate as the number could bring very bad luck or even death. Cherished number plates with "888" would be the total opposite and would bring good luck and fortune. Here are the meanings that have been carried over onto personalised number plates:

The number 1 (pronounced " yao " ) is very close to the pronunciation for the word " yao " that means "want" or "you" that means "has".
The number 4 (prounced "shi" ) can mean "generation", "world", "is", or "death".
The number 5 (pronounced "wu" ) is very close to "wo" meaning "me"
The number 6 (pronounced "liu" ) is close to "liu" that means "slippery". Thus "66" means slippery or "smooth running"
The number 7 (pronounced "chi" ) sounds like "chu" meaning "go" or "che" meaning "eat"
The number 8 (pronounced "ba" ) sounds close to "fa" which means "prosper"

Personalised Number Plates In Hong Kong; They have there own system with numbers like HK 338 up on sale for $500,000 & EM 168 for $110,000. It seems as if the numbers are most important on personalised number plates for the chineese.

Personalised number plates within the Asian community have also become very popular, 786 is a very much sought after Muslim number, "786" is the total value of the letters of "Bismillah al-Rahman al-Rahim" and has been adopted for a long time and the majority of the Ummah is still indulged in it inadvertently. Apart from the common folk, the scholars also heed no attention towards it and to avoid disrespect to the Holy Words they use it in their letters and documents. They adopt it as 'correct' and 'better' way to invite Allah's blessings and have also started replacing the Holy Words by this number on their houses, offices, buildings, and of course personalised number plates. S1 NGH fetched £86,000 at a DVLA personalised number plates auction. Other interesting Asian private number plates are WAS 1M, ACK 1M, HAK 1M, MAJ 1D, SOH 4L.

Many people in the UK will think the number "13" is unlucky but we do get a lot of customers who really want to be different and buy personalised number plates with "13" on them. Other popular numbers are 321, 123, all trebles like 777,888 and 999 for an Emergency service worker.

The ultimate personalised number plates to own across the board would be a single number "1" with a min of one letter and a max of 3 letters. Personalised number plate A 1 is considered to be worth over 1 million pounds (if it became available).
