It would be ace if the UK launched the same system, but it would destroy the Cherished plate business overnight if they did.

I think DVLA already have done it.! You can request any number not issued to go into Auction,and at least once purchased you can Transfer/Buy/Sell as you like hence the investment potential.!

Between 1955 and 1962 councils could re-issue old, void numbers on request and payment of a flat £5 fee....would have the same effect if brought in today!

I think this was just originally a regular issue so I'm thinking someone in the past lucked out with this one.

I thought that when they launched the then-new "prefix" plates, they reserved the numbers 1-20, all tens up to 90, all hundreds, and all double-digit and triple-digit, for personalised sale. But my old Audi starts C444, so I wonder whether that would make it a special order or whether I've mis-remembered.

It depended on the initial letter I think. A-H they only kept 1-20 back I think.

The first was 'H', plus 1-20, a two digit number divisible by 10 or 11 or a three digit number divisible by 100 or 111. This was 'Select' for new cars only. Then in 1991 'Custom' marks were launched with A, H or later letters and numbers 1-20.

Saw this a few weeks back, amused me mostly because of the vehicle it is on (although perhaps the Non hazardous sign means it isn't?). Immature I know.

Saw B 2 on a Range Rover in MK yesterday.
Must be worth a few quid!

In Germany right now where the plate starts with wherever you live then afterwards you get to choose. I've foregone the plae part but there's a guy who favours my local metzgerei with both a Panamera and a Cayenne on PH 28 and PH 8 respectively. Suitable for PH?

Plate worth more than the car. Bonus points for cute dog.

On my neighbor's drive this afternoon...

Wrong thread.

Possibly.

To make up for it, I've just seen 1 HMP on a Volkswagen Touareg in Northants. Didn't get a chance to take pics, unfortunately.

"GIG 97" on a black V12 Q7 on the outskirts of Leeds earlier today. The "TDI" bit of the badging seemed to have fallen off

That 918 has been through 2 PH owners so far hasn't it?

Yep, Traxx and Woppum,

Yes, the well known country and western duo, currently touring the UK.

Good plate. Wrong car.
