On, err, something not memorable in Berkshire today.

Also saw this near miss. At least it was correctly spaced.

I wonder if he was heading to 83 Royal Gardens?

Didn't know that, remember the Volvo from around 86/87.

This would have been mid to late 70s.

Does anyone know the history / backstory of that plate ? I thought the DVLA only auctioned un-released plates and not re issues ?

I ask because my dad has told me on many occasions that years ago (back in the 60's) his friend had that plate on a Morris 1100 (a la Fawlty Towers) which belonged to the blokes sister. I never expected to see it on a car, so I'll tell him it's still around.

His friend also had the plate, 1 CUM

You are correct DVLA only auction un-releleased numbers and according to Noel Woodall's "Car number's" book ANN 1E was never released until 1989..

1 CUM is an original release..

Correct - ANN 1E was not around in the 60s. ANN is a Nottinghamshire plate, and was issued forward, reverse, with B and H suffixes and an E prefix.

I was bored so checked the green numbers of sold plates on the Yet To Be Found list

Thanks for that but the list is a little out of date as I didn't remove recent new spots.

Friend saw 7 G the other day but forgot to take a pic

I also suspect G 2 on the site is actually a Gibraltar plate

G2 definitely is, so should be removed - the Saxo is sporting a GBZ sticker, identifier for Gibraltar. G2 is not on the DVLA database so is either on retention or lost :-(

5UE D on a DS3 in Spennymoor. Quite good if you’re a Sue D...or maybe if you’re a lawyer!
