Plates worth far more than the car they're on

Paul Horrel referred to that in last month's Top Gear magazine. How do you find out what car a registration number is on?

I'm not sure. It was just on the road around Islington.

A bit off topic but i love these:

Still in Cheyne Walk?

I think the Aston has gone ,cant remember what is in its place

"UEA 1" is on the front of a 2001 S320... unsurprisingly owned by someone quite up at UEA (University of East Anglia)

Saw '007' on an old bentley on the A2 going toward elephant and castle. Remember thinking at the time it should be on an Aston or something

Bonds original car in the Ian Fleming books is a Bentley.He [Sean Connery] refers to it

in Goldfinger when "Q" shows him the DB5 for the first time

Saw "30" on a golf tdi today imagine that plate is worth a few quid...

I saw A2 on a battered old Volvo in Falmouth a few years back. Askmid says it's on a DB1 now.

I'm not sure what they're on now but there were 2 fiesta st's near me with 8k and MU3 on the plates i think one of them is now on a mondeo both must be worth a bit especially the M U one

The plate A1 is on a 2007 Mini

IIRC That mini belongs to sir philip green's daughter.
Happy to be corrected though.

Still has the Aston, but the other plate is on an AMG Merc S65 at the same place

8K is on a Fiesta Zetec S and MU3 isn't coming up so must not be on anything at the moment.

BV6 is on a Clio near me.

Also saw 3D on a Lex a little while ago.

A Corsa B near my parents house has a plate that spells wk - think it's W2ANK or W4NNK or something, I can't remember of the top of my head but it's spaced to read wk nonetheless.

I often see 'U 15' on a VW Polo.

[beechams]

I see that C1 on the A3 above around Little Aston, Sutton Coldfield quite a lot
