i've just noticed another car on the zone with nearly identical number plate on.

mine is F813 ORK and the other is F810 ORK

has anyone else seen a nearly identical number plate, to theirs?
if there wern't people like me,
with cars like mine,
who would you put down to make yourself feel better?

I have E30 YB but not registered on my car yet. The plate is on retention and can it be put on car if the tax has run out?

Mine is H922PWP. The only other PWP I've ever seen is on a 318iS Baur on here. IIRC it's H3**PWP

Not particularly close though. :roll:
This is why I no longer drive an E30......

Mine is D126 ALY and my fathers (which has since met it's maker) was D128 KKO. Reasonably close I guess.

Also you way we sad but I believe it is the Vincent owners club who refer to fellow members not by name but by frame number.

I have just transfered 364GCY onto the 'folly'.The plate was issued in Swansea in 1963 to the Daimler V8 Saloon I sold last year. At a Daimler club meet I once spotted GCY366 on a DB18 with a Charlesworth DHC body.
