A five digit plate sounds like Guernsey to me?I've seen DUG 1 many years on a old Rolls Royce. Even took a picture with it I recall. Just cannot find it. In the meantime I have a 5 digit plate which represents my initials and my name too. You figure!
I think you are being 'pedantic' but for clarification, four letters and one digit then. Does that please you?A five digit plate sounds like Guernsey to me?
If so, I could be pedantic and say that it's non UK
Or I might of course be wrong!
Ah, gotcha, in that case I don't knowI think you are being 'pedantic' but for clarification, four letters and one digit then. Does that please you?
Gosh I remember seeing that there last year. I bet it is a regular - back in the days of 45s I would have been walking up that ramp from Euston regularly but now I miss the grand frontage and slip in the side !. I will have to check.Another spot. 17 JJ. Parked outside St Pancras Station.

There various newspaper articles on it, as well as a Reddit thread, where someone identified the owner (and then removed the name on request). Its a car that is owned by someone who lives in an apartment in the hotel.Gosh I remember seeing that there last year.

A quick check shows it not currently allocated to a vehicle.Not seen that one but clearly remember seeing "PEN 15" many years ago. Would it be allowed now?
There's a traction engine local to me registered FU92. Short but certainly not the impact of FU2.Today I was following a Bentley (Continental?) Northbound on the M11. It's registration (I kid you not) was FU 2!
I saw that reg. Believe it used to be owned by an ex racing driver.Not seen that one but clearly remember seeing "PEN 15" many years ago. Would it be allowed now?
As far as I know, UK numbers have always been a minimum of a letter and a digit, starting from A1.Does anyone know if there are any single character number plates in the UK? So something like "A" or "B" or "1" or "2" etc on its own? From reading this thread everything seems to be two characters minimum? So i am wondering if single character number plates do actually exist?

Guernsey has numeric only plates, so it's possible that some or all of 1 - 9 might still be in use. I think they issue plates to people rather than vehicles, but if that's right, I assume they can be transferred or inherited, otherwise those early numbers will have disappeared.

A flurry of four character registration plates noted in the past 36 hours.
90GB Jaguar and 50EB Freelander both parked outside the same house so someone's flush.

Indeed, though the number and digit can be the other way round. Letter followed by number tends to be original issues; whereas number followed by letter tend to be DVLA money spinners (although there are numerous authorities that did issue number(s) followed by letter.As far as I know, UK numbers have always been a minimum of a letter and a digit, starting from A1.
No, as others have said, some areas started issuing before London (Jan 1904), two examples being Edinburgh and Kent (December 1903).A1 was I think the first number plate. It's now registered to a black mini!
There is a vehicle with the numberplate FK02YES, was on the Freelander Matt of Furious Driving acquired but he sold the plate.A quick check shows it not currently allocated to a vehicle.

See my post #89 - it is still around!In the 1970s I did see FU2 owned by Fiona Richmond
