I have never seen a plate in this format before. Spotted on a Toyota pickup between Crowthorne and Wokingham.

The 358th plate issued by Yorkshire (West Riding) County Council back in 1904

Lovely. 1 x 3 and 1 x 4 'forward' are incredibly rare. Even at the time 1 x 1 and 1 x 2 had a certain kudos and were transferred, and those lost were resucitated in the late 50s when this was allowed. Three and Four digit plates just died with the car.

Thanks for the detail, the plate really stood out!

The second one qualifys for the other thread.....

Fair enough, does this car-specific one make up for it?

Remember seeing that also on a Virage on the way to Le Mans in about 2002/2003. Was a green one though. That could be a wrap of course.
