Staffordshire, UK. 24th August 2008. The number one number plate dealer in the UK for online sales of private car registration numbers Carreg.co.uk has been in business since 1988 and over those years they have noticed the whole industry change, in fact vehicle number plates have become a commodity to some sections of society for completely different reasons.
Thefts of vehicle number plates have grown as fast the fuel in the pumps at service stations have been going up. In line with the theft of number plates, the theft of fuel has increased too. This is because of the extensive use of CCTV and even ANPR at service stations, but with a freshly stolen set of number plates, the systems used by the service stations will only catch an innocent driver's number plate. The first thing that that know about it is when the authorities come knocking on their door.
Carreg.co.uk have seen how this can inconvenience and distress people, so they have come up with the Carreg.co.uk anti theft number plate security kit, which Includes - 4 x One way screws - 8 x double sided sticky pads - 8 x Screw top covers, priced at £2.99 + Post.
Carreg.co.uk Managing Director, Jason Wilkes, said: \"We have all seen in the media just lately the increasing number of (actual Perspex) number plate thefts from vehicles all over the UK. Police have found that this is due to the increasing fuel prices. Offenders can remove unprotected number plates from a car then refit the stolen plates onto another vehicle, they would then fill up with fuel, drive off with a full tank then remove the stolen plates leaving your number plate the only lead for the police to trace. A possible solution is to buy a personal/private number plate and or fit an anti theft kit.
