Fantastic!

How much does anybody think it is worth?

Look what I found at DVLA - follow the link below - bear in mind this sold in 1996 when number plates weren't a big thing!!




Thanks to Dave Saltman for posting this article!

Plate issued in Birmingham last year - BO 55 MAN. Has anyone seen it or know who owns it (or does the DVLA still have it??).
It was expected to fetch more than K1 NGS - the most expensive plate sold.

just for interest factor, when i worked for Kestrel, Richard Veitch bought a couple of new Massey Ferguson 4245 Tractors, and Lister Wilders found him a plate to put on one of them, he never did but im not sure if he bought it on a retention certificate, the plate read " V 31 TCH" yep you got it "VEITCH" i said he should have put it on one of the trucks, and i was on the look out for K 357 REL....(KESTREL)...what other zany plates can you think of appropriate for our trade..but they got to be feasable if they were available...ie Lister Wilder own K13OTA (KUBOTA) and TH Whites own M3WER (MOWER)....cheers...Ticky

Do you have to have a car to buy these number plates?

26 Mar 2006 by Dannyjeynes

No-

a retention certificate for the plates costs £25 per 12 months if u dont have a car!

At one job I had, we had number plates for our Mastiff because we took it accross a road.

All the ride on machinery that we have have number plates as they have to be registered to cross a main road to some of our playing fields.
It is but a 30 metre stretch of road but without registering each machine, we are uninsured in the event of an accident on the road.
Three tractors, two ride on mowers and a Gator.
