Who's picking up a March 1st 15 Reg..?

[CRA1G]

Got an email to confirm my 1st March allocated slot for 9.50 am for a 30 minute max hand over for the new car...

My Volvo V40 is going back this week - but I haven't decided on a replacement yet so I'll be hooning around in my Clio until I think of a suitable replacement.

So no, basically. What are you picking up, out of interest?

That would be a fail on most manufacturers CSI scorecards then - exactly why I would never collect a car on plate change day - treated like cattle

We had a customers 15-Plate delivered on Friday on trade plates. They got a nice handover and then it's there ready for Sunday. Happy customer.
Equally we had one who didn't care at all and took a 64-Plate on Friday as they wanted it ASAP.

BMW i8

I love the i8 and what it's trying to achieve but how do you feel about the 30mpg average claim from reviewers?

Decided to leave mine till the 7th at 0900 - looking forward to the drive home on EV

Normally I don't like to see people show their own plates in the fking Nice Plates thread but with a plate as good as yours I always make an exception.

New picture on Sunday please

Very Nice. Well Done.

Do people actually still care about registration plate change-overs? I thought that had pretty much disappeared when they started changing plates twice a year.

I should imagine most owners put the car through the business so are not so bothered about the MPG but the BIK savings.

Yeah, I do. I always enjoy trying to spot the new plates out on the road whenever they're released and, if you're buying a new car, you might as well wait for the new one if it's not far away. That said, I now have a car on a 63 and another on a 14 - they're getting far too old!

Congratulations on the i8, OP.

30 Minute handover for an i8? Jeez that's a bit short!
