Unfortunately, the plate was issued around November 1920. If it were an original issue to the original vehicle, I'd be tempted to agree with you .

I'd set the standards VERY high to end the thread (but, Thank God, it's not my call).

November? I think you'll find it was May. May 2004 to be precise at a DVLA plate auction. Not too sure it was worth the £13.5K plus fees

Definitely not an "end thread" plate if it's a DVLA purchase. I just assumed it was an original issue reversed S, but I don't know what the first number in the range was.

OK.. self promoting, but I like my plate.

Not that good compared to a lot of plates being posted but I bought this for my son Freddie, only another 14 years until he can use it!!

But at least in 3 years time it will say his age too...

If you could please Rob that would be fantastic. I'm after going from the station to the hotel at 8pm. What's your best price

Don't get it...

I've not forgotten what you do for a living, don't worry.
