LoopyLing Posted December 26, 2008 Report Share Posted December 26, 2008 Well i know it sounds obvious but isn't a 51 earlier than an 02 plate by 6 months? Therefore you're making the car look newer!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SC02 FFF Posted December 26, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 26, 2008 yes i know that, but all my documents were 2002. that was the only thing im going on . lol. i just presumed it'd be cause the cars offical documents are 02 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Defcon5 Posted December 26, 2008 Report Share Posted December 26, 2008 (edited) From the DVLA Personalised Registrations websiteAre there any restrictions to the year of registration number I can choose?You can make your vehicle look as old as you wish but you can not make it look newer than it actually is i.e. You cannot put a Y registration number on a T registered vehicle but you could choose any prefix from an A to a T.It matters not the year of the vehicle, just the actual registration mark Edited December 26, 2008 by Defcon5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Philplop Posted December 26, 2008 Report Share Posted December 26, 2008 Knew it wasn't right when you first posted it up.The new plates don't come out til February or March or something anyway, so some cars (like yours) will be an early 2002, hence 51 plate.Doubt they'll let you keep it on the car. You can't make a car look newer than it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Lauryn Posted December 27, 2008 Report Share Posted December 27, 2008 It sucks if they let you do it in the first place, it should have been picked up at the point where you went in to register it to the car, and declined then. I'd be wanting them to pay retention/transfer fees etc since they made the mistake of letting it go on the car in the first place. £105 for retention and transfer fee combined.
