is it common for plates to be 'returned'?

A Trader mate has a plate he puts on his cars that he runs for a while. They allways revert back to the original plate so I suppose its d.v.l.a policy to do so.

No this was for 25 years and the plate as etched on the windows was transferred on to the new car, it's something like 10M, not a long number so worth a mint. The odd thing is now the original plate has gone back on the car, it's not transferable. Shame cos it's a low number (10) and an X reg.

Did you mean to put a link with this, or are you just passing comment?

[dollywobbler]

I'm glad there's no link. I've ALWAYS craved a Bedford CF ice cream van. But only with that forward-tilted, slightly odd windscreen.

[pogweasel]

Like this, Ian?

 

 

Glad it's not just me then.

 

But I'd want to have the 'full set'

[dollywobbler]

Noooo, exactly NOT like that Mr Weasel. Note the curvy-round screen on the one you've pictured. The one Father Ted posted I think has the normal windscreen but it's tilted up (note that the bottom corners look a bit odd). Or maybe it's a windscreen for something else - it certainly wasn't a windscreen designed for that body!

Clean but why it has Leyland stickers all over it is beyond me?

Now I'd like to see that turning up on the bay. The omens arent good tho:

 

The vehicle details for WGU 18G are:

 

Date of Liability 01 04 1989

Date of First Registration 09 09 1968

Cylinder Capacity (cc) 3933CC

Fuel Type Petrol

Export Marker Not Applicable

Vehicle Status Unlicensed

Vehicle Colour BLACK

Mind you, if that pair did still have it to sell, it wouldnt make much of that million quid back for them.

I saw that on a school trip to London one day. Let me get this anorak comfortable, I think it said on the back of the record sleeve that it was a 1968 Ford and was brought over by a Ford US employee, then sold on and was in the Superman film.

I WANTED TO PUT A V8/V6 IN IT BUT DECIDED TO MOVE TO SOUTH AFRICA INSTEAD.

Interesting decision-making process.

I`ve researched the fate of this car into some depth, for reasons not known even to myself, and as far as I can tell, it was in superman 3, then the KLF bought it, used it in a few videos, released a couple of singles (the artist was actually credited as "Ford Timelord") then it was off the road for years, supposedly banger raced in the mid `90s, but that turned out to be a ringer, some sort of Chevrolet product made to look like a cop car, so where the Galaxie is now is anyone`s guess. Could still be rotting away in the KLF`s garden, along with quite possibly the KLF themselves.

Have we had a Summer on the last six months (or moths)? Sorry but I have been looking for a decent older car recently and all I find is rubbish and crap ads like this one.

Speaking of Phase 1 Mk2 Transits - here's a ruffasabadgersarse diesel one, as seen on pikey sites countrywide circa 1992:

 

 

Wonder how long that shock is going to stay attached for?
