Jeep Number Plates

Although the manufacturers all advertised their companies, the name “Jeep” didn’t happen until 1945 with Willys CJ-2A. Willy’s vehicles were used for all sorts in the war, from cable lying, firefighting pumpers, ambulances to tractors. They were one of the best non-ammunition weapons that the US had. They weren’t even restricted to the US, as they were exported and supplied to both Great Britain and the Soviet Red Army – with around 30% of all production going there.

Models

After their success, Jeep went forward with new concepts and modifications – such as the CJ-V35/U which had a snorkel in the engine to allow breathing underwater for a short period of time.

Jeep sought to be more accessible and so launched the Civilian Jeeps in 1945 – the 2A, 3B and 5 and further models up to the 7. Soon after, Jeep replaced the CJ’s with it’s most famous model – the Wrangler. A compact, mid-sized four-wheel drive which has had 3 generations up to date.

In latter years, Jeep has tried to broaden their market to a more ‘luxury’ sector. Whilst keeping their notorious ‘rugged, off-road’ style, they have delved into more on-road practicality, comfort and safety with modern variants such as the Cherokee, Renegade and the Wagoneer. Whilst still keeping the iconic Jeep features such as the round headlights and 7 bar grill, they’ve managed to adapt and tweak models to fit into the modern aesthetic.

What size are Jeep number plates?

The vast majority of Jeep vehicles use regular UK plates, whether they’re standard front and rear plates which measure 520mm x 111mm, a large rear (533mm x 152mm) or a 4×4 plate (279mm x 103mm). Of course, you can make these into custom Jeep number plates by choosing from a variety of options on our Plate Builder, from 4D Neons to 3D Gels too! If you want standard Jeep replacement plates though, then just select the size option and enter your reg!
