Fancy Numberplates

Used to see B10PSY running round in the Wimbledon area years ago, not on anything special as I remember. Apparently now on a Porsche.

 

(A memorable sketch, probably couldn’t get away with that on mainstream tv now…)

 

Never bettered

 

I remember seeing DBD34 on a Gold star BSA years ago in Stevenage. No photo sorry.

 

I saw M1 NGE on an M3 in Blackburn years ago, how did that get through?

 

Presumably vetted by the same DVLA operative that let PEN15 through?

 

Some of them are for dyslexics only.

 

If I wanted to use the number plate from my daughter's car on a new motorbike, how would I go about replacing her plate?

 

Easy, apply to put the registration on retention and request a year related plate to replace it. The DVLA web site is quite useful. Andy

 

There will be an £80 charge. If your bike is brand new you’ll be ok. The vehicle must be newer than the plate. Going the other way is fine but you’re not allowed to make your vehicle appear newer than it is with a reg plate.

 

I’m not sure that you can. I’m sure, some time back, I read that you could put a bike number on a car, but not the other way around.

I’ve switched plates between bikes and cars.

Or are you on about original allocation plates from DVLA?

 

I have these two.....

And the wife has KC52 RMC on her car

 

Very fancy indeed.

 

Many moons ago the magazine, Private Eye would have small ads at the back, a very memorable ad read.......

Never forgot it

 

So, what is the actual registration number supposed to be?

 

I don't think it was a real plate, tounge in cheek?

 

Quite a few years ago, I saw a white porsche 911 with the reg number S70 LEN

Is now on a black land rover according to dvla
