Googled LVLO and came up DVLA. are we not allowed to make our own using say your initials and postcode for example.

The original requirements were:
7.
The VIN number must consist of 17 digits. Numbers or letters or a mixture. Do not use letter "Z", "I" or letter "O" but figures "1" and "0" are ok
8.
The information must be shown in a single line. You should start and end with an asterisk so no numbers/letter can subsequently be added
9.
Capital letters and numerals must be used for the manufacturer’s name and VIN

10. There must not be any gaps large enough to insert extra characters between the characters for the VIN shown on the manufacturer’s plate or stamped into the vehicle.
11.
Other than in the case of a Mass Produced vehicle the characters on the manufacturer’s plate must be at least 3.5mm high.
12.
The characters used for the VIN stamped into the chassis, frame or other similar structure must be at least 3.5mm high.

Or contact DVLA office and ask them for one, but may have to wait a month or more,
