Weighty Platey Dilemma
Discussion
My lovely new wife (£4.99 from Bangkok Brides monthly - JOKING!) has purchased on my behalf, as a wedding pressie, a personal reg. Reading the bumff on the DVLA site you may not use a plate on your car that makes the car appear to be younger than it really is. The TDCi is on a 51 plate registered 30th of Feb this year, the plate is an 02 which I think begins 1st March.
My question is for those that may have been through this themselves, are the DVLA going to let me put the plate on the car?

er, no.
Date of first registration dictates youngest plate allowed, unfortunately.
Did a parallel import on my motor in Feb '01 and didn't register it until 1st March on an 'old' personal plate. Without a personal plate I would have been assigned an 'X' prefix rather than 'Y', as the car had been temporarily registered for a week elsewhere in the EU.

Pants, had a sneaking suspicion that that was the case. Guess that unless anyone has a "cunning plan" I'll have to wait until the Chimp fund reaches maturity. Only problem with that is that it'll be her daily driver not mine. Nevermind seems people weren't joking when they said don't do it lad they take everything.......
