I can remember most of dad's car numbers:-

Our neighbour's Morris 1000 sticks in my mind too - 259BWN - was on the road until about 10 years ago.

A849 NYA. Vauxhall cavalier. My dad used all of his redundancy money from Rolls Royce in 1983 to buy it brand new and I remember the arguments with my mum. She had her eye on a kitchen but he spent it all before she even had chance to order a kitchen catalogue.

D919 LPP Vauxhall Carlton, An early new shape was available as an ex company car at Du Pont so he ditched the Cav and upgraded to a Carlton. Followed by more arguments as my dad got very little selling the cavalier privately and needed even more money to get the Carlton.

XFY 689W - Poverty spec Fiesta that a motorcyclist crashed through the door of.
C185 OFY - 1.6 Mk3 Escort we called Coffee
E80 REE - Ford Granada that some thieving scrote tried to steal by bending out the top of the drivers' door. The door wasn't even locked.
R436 XDB - Fiat Brava
ND52 GCF - Renault Laguna Estate that was crap
EN55 AJO - Fiat Croma that was also crap
KF04KXB - Astra dualfuel which didn't have functioning LPG. It was reliable though.

Yes.....All of them
FG8484 - My Late Dads 34 20/25 Rolls Sports Saloon. by H.J. Mulliner. Seen here in either summer 71 or 72. I’ve been trying to find it for some years now.

[Ninja59]

I only remember a few
R906UUD
P436XUD
DG04HHT, I think

Prior to that a bit blank, post that a bit blank minus the current polestar which my dad won't let me drive, flipside I don't let him drive mine! As much as I dislike some personalised plates, moving it car to car is a saviour.

[garythesign]

JAX 12

My Dad was an early adopter of the personal number plate.

He unfortunately lost the number when he stuffed his car inti the back of a brewert wagon

[BadOrangePete]

My dad was a big fan of bangernomics so had a constant steady turnaround of cheap bangers. One I remember was a Sierra Sapphire, E330UNT..one of his workmates got creative with some tape one day to make it very NSFW

[lornemalvo]

VDV 539 and GPR 963. My father's Ford Prefect and Ford Zephyr six Mk 1. He owned these when I was 10 in 1965. Bizarre, given how little I remember generally, both recently and back then.

[James6112]

I remember all of mine / families. Ocd.

One memorable was grandads Mk1 Cortina, around 1970. 975 EJB. I was a kid, he picked me up from school, a parent wanted to buy it from him. EJB was on Paddy Hopkirk Mini, maybe worth something back then.
