Hi Bentley owners.

I have inherited a number plate which is 4 digits and the letters TU. This is a 1960s Crewe plate.

Does it have any significance to a Bentley owner? I only ask as I have seen press cars with 1900 TU plates.

I am not sure what I will do with it whether to keep or sell it?

Cheer

This should explain - just means a local registration to the factory

Thanks, I saw the link. Family lore has now suggested it was the plate on my dad’s 1st car - a Mini. I will write to the DVLA to see if they can verify this.
