[S16KBW]

These photos are up at my work, thought some of you would appreciate some original issues...





I particularly like that they apparently had PKU 560 - PKU 565 as a fleet

That will be interesting,it only sold in September 2014 for £6800 + VAT which locked good value to me...

Reading some of these prices makes me think I significantly overpaid at auction for my plate a few years ago

Saw K155 HUG today which my wife decided was a good number plate .

I’ll let you lot decide.

[RammyMP]

Decent plate, shame the driver can’t find the indicator stalk.

Given the time of the year, might just be given the benefit of the doubt, otherwise way down my list of what constitutes real good.

Wow! Are these pictures of vehicles the company actually owned in the past, or just pictures that adorn the walls of said company's premises?
The PKUs are Bradford plates from June 1958.

Saw 'R1' on a Land Rover last week. I seem to remember it (used to) belong to the boss of Roadchef?

Pictures of owned company vehicles, they adjourn the walls of one of our Bradford premises

Thank you! I have a particular interest in original issues. I guess because they are special builds the plates are from all over the UK, but PKU is Bradford - is that you? Issued June 1958

Last one I post, promise. This, from a Regtransfers leaflet August 2000, has a few single singles in it.

Yes BD7 area of Bradford is where they would have lived, I would assume the same that being special builds the others may have been registered in other areas before being coach built to custom specifications etc.
