HAVE you got the love bug? If you want to show your loved one how much you care this Valentine's Day, why not send a special message of love on a personalised registration from DVLA and give them a Millennium bug they'll want to catch...

DVLA Select Registrations can be as personal as initials, a name or even a private message.

Or, like V14 LUV, it can make a more obvious statement where the Valentine message is clear for all to see.

With over seven million potential combinations and 15 different prefixes to choose from, there is bound to be the perfect message guaranteed to woo any lover, not just the motoring minded.

Stuart Jones, public relations manager for DVLA Sale of Marks, said, "The majority of people buy our personal numbers for a bit of fun and many choose their own combination to reflect a special date or anniversary. A Select Registration makes a truly personal and novel gift."

To buy a personalised number in time for Valentine's Day, simply call the DVLA telesales hotline on 0870 6000 142.

Alternatively, to check the availability and price of your favourite mark, log on to the DVLA web-site at www.dvla-som.co.uk. Prices start at an all inclusive £250, with B, C, V and W prefix marks starting at £399.
