History of registrations
Discussion
Good evening all,
My vehicle has had a few private registrations on it in its past, however it appears to have had two 'non personalised' registrations too. Here is what I see
2013 - 2014
The car had a native/regional registration when new. It then had what must be it's first owner apply a private registration.
11 months later the car was put back on it native registration.
2014 - 2016
It looks like it may have remained on this registration for 2 years.
2016 - 2021
It had a new private registration applied to it.
2021
It has a new native/geographic number plate applied to it, from the part of the country I purchased the vehicle from.
2021 - 2023
It had a new owners personalised registration applied to it.
2023 - 2024
It had the same 'new' native/geographic number plate applied to it (the one it was assigned in 2021) when it went into trade and I bought it.
Just curious. Why would a car have a different original first native/regional registration number, then another different 'new' native/regional one later on in its life. It's hpi clear etc. Could the fact it had a 5 year stint on a private plate between 2016 and 2021 and the fact it was residing in a different part of the country explain it?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks.
The original native non personalised plate isn't returned on anything if I search it (MOT history etc). If it's on a v750 somewhere I guess it wouldn't. The original registration itself doesn't look special, but perhaps someone wanted to keep it.
I guess the new registration it was given in 2021 took the locale of the new owner!

It is possible that the number reverted to a ‘native’ plate when the owners were trying to sell (and/or), and so put that personal plate onto their second car. So that may be just 3 owners. What is the car such that it commands a private plate?
Yes, that is a given I think. They would all retain their personalised registrations. It was the difference in native/non personalised registrations I queried and some of the other posters have commented on. If you're trying to convey a different point I don't follow, sorry!
