It's the sort of question that only the DVLA can answer.

See quite a few day to day though.

Nothing wrong with having an E reg, it all depends on the condition these days doesn't it?

I quite fancy an E30 plate for my cab which also "happens" to be on an L plate so I'm no snob :wink:

e reg = 1987
L reg = 1993

e.f.g.h.j.k.l (didn't list certian letters since too close to numbers i.e. o, i)

The Letter is the year the car was registered......

well the systems changed now but all e30 are on the old system,

L reg is 1st August 1993-31st July 1994
E Reg is 1st August 1987-31st July 1988

You can work out the most the others,, (just dont include, I, O, Z, Q, U)
