THE AGE OF VEHICLE THIS REGISTRATION MARK CAN BE TRANSFERRED TO.

This registration number can only be transferred to a vehicle which was registered on or after a 05 plate which is 01-03-2005 or newer.

 

WTF!!

Its an 05 plate, you cant use a plate that makes the car appear newer than it is

Just for a minor rant i think its pointless that number plates are age related, who needs to know what year a car is? If you are buying the car then it will be on a document (V5).. This is how some other countries do it and they sell personal or vanity plates at far better prices than we get fleeced for here..

 

Or is it just so some people can feel very proud of the fact that they have "this years" number and this will encourage others to want to shell out for a new car..

 

Absolute load of crap imho..

 

And while we are on, the new number scheme is badly thought, if we have to have the year then put the year on and its not 2064 yet..

That's the plan and the reason the plates don't change at the obvious time like the 1st January etc. All to do with motor shows and new car releases and such like crap to encourage a gullible public and help the manufacturers.

That is such an insult, we are even being told what we should be thinking...
