7 BC on a Bentley S1 cruising at 75mph heading North on the A417 past Cirencester. It just made me smile.

Quite remarkable disparity between W18 and S23 in that list - W names aren't that uncommon, for example!

Are they original issues, being 'the right way round'?

Same with 72 K, all three will be original issues, I think they've over egged it on the 'S' reg and under egged it on the 'W' and 'K' regs based on what I've seen in the market, but the single letter 'S' Regs do seem to go for more then other letters on the plate sites.

I guess we will soon find out what the market will bear! lol

Nice that some old plates are surviving, though. I think that's part of the reason I want an original issue when I've got some money (haha) - keep a bit of history going smile

Saw 'FS 1' on a brand new Cullinan this morning. The plate has been on the car for less than a month, but can't see it in the auction results.

You were spotted there also. In one FB group someone described your plate as "The best Craig plate I've ever seen"
