28 Cool Personalised Car Licence Plates on very expensive cars in Hong Kong - | Rolls Royce cars only!

Hong Kong Culture 101

I am a leading expert in Hong Kong on the Car Vanity Plate Culture also known as Personalised Car Licence Plate Culture which garners worldwide attention particularly at Chinese New Year in Hong Kong.

I do not want to duplicate information listed in my extensive guide (see link above) however there are some things that you need to know. The Hong Kong Government being the Hong Kong Government does not call them vanity plates or licence plates for some odd reason.

There are 2 main categories

TVRM - Traditional Vehicle Registration Marks

PVRM - Pesonalised Vehicle Registration Marks

So here goes and this is the same text as my normal Car Licence Plate blog posts.

  • Traditional marks are licence plates that are just numbers, letters with numbers (maximum 2 letters and 4 numbers) and just single letters these marks have been sold at Auction since 1973 - prior to that you were assigned the licence plate randomly by the Transport Department, AA + Numbers and XX + Numbers along with just Numbers came prior to 1973.

  • Personalised marks are licence plates that are NOT any of the above categories, it can be pretty much anything you want as long as it is no longer than 8 letters | numbers without spacing, so it can be all letters or all numbers or a mix - these marks have been sold at Auction since 2006 and have proven to be very popular, although you cannot use the letters i, o or q so it does lead to some bizarre combinations on plates

  • Certain registration marks are assigned for Government vehicles such as AM F LC and the mark ZG is assigned to Chinese Military Vehicles

Hong Kong is famous for car enthusiasts and social media sites have spawned a huge amount of people who take a couple of hundred images of car licence plates, post them and then just lose interest, there are very few people like myself who have a real passion for this interesting subject, it really is Hong Kong Culture 101.

Interestingly I find that the Foreign Press and the Local Press only seem to concentrate on the personalised plates that are funny and yet the real culture behind licence plates in Hong Kong is LUCKY Numbers and that has always been my primary interest. click on the 2 links above and learn more.

People assume that Rolls Royce owners are probably rich fuddy duddy’s - nothing could be further from the truth, they maybe rich but they have taste and class and there is just something very cool about a personalised licence plate on a Rolls Royce.

So the purpose of this blog post is to add to your knowledge of the culture of PVRM plates in Hong Kong and yes, some of them really do make you laugh and personally, well it is as mentioned so cool.

For once, the images are in alphabetical order and at some stage I will add other posts for Bentley, Lamborghini, Ferrari etc and the cool plates on them.

The image is really a visual only thing unless I need to explain for context purposes.

All of the pictures are my own, sadly a lot of collators of Hong Kong Licence Plates on Facebook, X, Instagram are not fussy about photo quality, I am and very much so., blurry images taken with a smart phone make me break out in a cold sweat.

This is simply a hobby for me, I do NOT sell my images and all of my images can be FREELY downloaded from my image site in the original upload image size or 5 other sizes, please note that you DO NOT have to ask for permission to download and use any of my images! just go to my site menu link above and click on J3 Hong Kong Images, there are over 168,000 images.
