Old Vectra GSi - XA - Not listed, registered Luton

hmmmm, doesn't work for me I'm afraid.

Only works for prefix plates (ie not the VXR)

Sometimes dealers move plates around if customers want a specific plate, so it wont work all the time. When i bought my van, I wanted LR55 instead of WR55, but London didnt have any availiable :(

Also mine was sold from chester to someone in swindon for some reason, and it wasn't just a moved plate because it had the lookers chester sticker in the back window and the first service in the book was done in swindon. So it's possible the car moved when it was sold.

My old Nova was a Geordie.. No wonder it was mental. :)

Hmm, my zafira ends in bx, but was sold, and registered in crewe.

What year is it though as the reg location only applies to vehicles registered on the old system, if its XX53 XXX then that doesnt apply, only X123 XXX if you see what i mean?

mine is from lincoln, but until i got my mits on it, it spent all its life in a little village near huntingdon........ maybe there was a local vauxhall sub dealer, or the local garage bought it in, as it had no dealer stickers on it, even on the reg plates

Nova - TN - birmingham which i knew as first owner worked in the dealership he bought it from.
Sierra - NN - nottingham, knew it was from down south as my mate brought it up here, think i might have history from nottingham for it somewhere
Honda Logo - SF - edinburgh, thought it was from glasgow
Astra - UR - luton, travelled a long way
Fiesta - LT - London NW, knew this aswell as still had original plates nad stickers.
Yamaha 125 - SD - glasgow, assumed it would be local, surprised its the only one though.

cant remember any others and my current motorbike doesnt have a plate at the moment as it was converted for offroad

My mums vectra is TM luton but bought brand new from glasgow. was pre-registered though. (came on Y plate but 51 plates were out at the time). that make a difference??
