Soon after the second world war my father wrote to the registration officer in Berkshire, the county which issued his initials, to say 'Please will you let me know when you are going to issue 1 AJB'? He got it, for free, some time in the fifties, and had it until he gave up driving about 60 years later. My son then sold it for him for £18k - so quite a good investment.
I have a slight worry that at some point the registration system may be Europeanised, but other than that a registration may still prove a good investment. A splendid reason to vote conservative at the general election, and to vote to leave the EU at the referendum which the conservatives have promised!

That would depend upon ones disposable income at the end of the day though.
And their priorities!

I have an opinion on "vanity" plates. You won't like it. So I'll keep it to myself.

Why, in the name of all that is holy, would you want to spend money on something only other people see and, when they do, mostly think you're a prize prat?
