Put your driving IQ to the test: Can you spot the two matching number plates in this disorientating image?
Are you a keen-eyed driver with a knack for spotting details? If so, this challenge is for you!
In this image provided by transportation service Hoppa, a sea of number plates awaits your scrutiny. The sheer number of plates, combined with their identical color, can be quite disorienting, making it a test of both visual acuity and pattern recognition.
Your task is to identify the two matching number plates hidden within this chaotic jumble. If you can successfully locate the duplicates, congratulations! You've demonstrated a keen eye for detail and a remarkable ability to process visual information.
However, if you can identify the matching plates in under seven seconds, your driving IQ truly reaches the next level. This level of speed and accuracy is indicative of a mind that can quickly process information and make split-second decisions – essential skills for any driver.
If you're finding the task challenging, don't fret. Here's a hint: focus on the overall patterns and shapes formed by the number plates. Look for similarities in color, spacing, and font style.
For those seeking further challenges, Hoppa also offers two other brain teasers. Can you spot all 28 petrol-head film references in six minutes or less? This visual puzzle requires a deep knowledge of car movies and their iconic vehicles.
Or, test your mathematical aptitude by trying to identify the hidden numbers within the brain teaser. Those who can spot the numbers quickly possess an exceptionally sharp mind.
These challenges are designed to push your cognitive abilities and provide a fun way to engage your mind. So, grab a pencil, take a deep breath, and get ready to put your driving IQ, movie knowledge, and mathematical skills to the test!
If you have a clear idea of the letters and numbers you would like in your number plate, you can carry out a specialised search that covers over 42 million combinations of number plate registrations.
Choosing between current style number plates and prefix style number plates gives you a wider range of options, so you are more likely to find a private plate that includes the letters and numbers you prefer. All you need to do is fill in two of the three search boxes at the top of the page and then let our website do its magic. You will be presented with options you can purchase for yourself, or as a gift.
Personalised number plate auctions take place every three months, selling an average of 1,600 private registration numbers each time. They are a great opportunity to get hold of number plates that have never been on sale before, as they come with the new issues of each year’s plates.
If you are unable to attend the auction yourself, you can rely on us to bid on your dream personalised number plate – which will also help to prevent you from getting carried away and bidding far more than you had intended to!
We have the experience and expertise to be able to offer you advice and guidance about the kind of price range a particular plate might go for, and you can trust us to place your bids for you. We can even call you during the auction so you can keep track of whether you’re on a winning streak or not.
