Pre-1960 vehicles exempted from MoT

Abu Dhabi would be a good country to get free. Rob, Abbu, Abbu, Rob. "Just like that" Spoken in a Tommy Cooper type voice. But would Marcus like me wearing one of his bands titfers?

Then change your house name to A. Dobie Hut. Lampsign Place, Randomroadfuniture, Polgate, East Suffix.

I was going to suggest a hook but the Fez sounded less rude than comparisons with Abbu 'Look No' Hansa, part of the Carl Borgward group of terrorists.

COM 1C might make £2000?

Isn't that owned by Jimmy Tarbuck?

Folk with 'personalised' number plates on the wrong car should pay extra tax a year as clearly they have to much money.

I think you are right Al.  When I was in Rayleigh there was a garage on the industrial estate that serviced exotic cars.  COM 1C was on a red Ferrari.  That's why I remember it.  There were some very expensive plates going up and down the road in those days.

From www.mycarcheck.com    We have information on our database regarding COM 1C, a Mercedes C200 Komp.elegance Auto (Estate).

thanks rob nice and simple checked a few out and my matchless 350 sold 15 years ago not on now - wonder why .

[Rob Dobie]

I see DVLA Auctions have a plate for Bob to grab at their latest auction. Lot 164 ---- BOB 1P. Reserve £700

[Bob Purton]

Even I would pay £700 for that!  No interest in personalized numbers really.

Interesting as I saw COM IC on a Roller yonks ago when I was on my way to School, be mid '70's. Tarby in Swindon. Not sure where he lives but I expect near a Golf course.

BOB IP sounds like a pit of a cheapskates number, somehow. BOB 1N would be the one but no doubt rather expensive.

[richard]

al thats just silly - if bob bought BOB 1N he would have to change his name to bob nurton - very silly 

[marcus]

Or perhaps Bob Notrup?

I saw a van on the A2 a few weeks ago with L 1 SFU arranged L1S FU, suggesting either a bust-up or perhaps strong anti-royalty feelings!

[Barry]

BOB 1P looks ideal for Bob - go for it.

The most economical option is to find a cheap cherished number then change your name by Deed Poll to suit.................

As advertised by the lovely Eammon Holmes (he needs the cash).

[Big Al]

Just proves I am no use at this number plate thing being dyslexic. The relevance of the P completely escaped me. Most of the 'words' I cannot see as they are like text speak and not a picsal I recognise. L 1 SFU would go right passed me unless explained.

Got TBM 911 so I only need to change my name and buy a Porsche 911 to have a simply enormous willy, then.

Quite frankly I prefer 804 LOX on a square letter plate, which might find its way onto Buster if he gets built.

I have just cycled down hill to my local motorcycle shop that does MOTs. It was hell coming back though, (bad knees). As I have bought a few bikes from them and had mopeds MOTed there from around 2006-9 I thought that they would know all the answers. But no, they say they have had no information about pre-1960 vehicles exempted from MOTs after 18th Nov.
Strange, but maybe the authorities have told them to keep quiet.

[Bob Purton]

Would the mot centers be the ones to know though? If anyone I would have thought the local DVLA offices would know something as they issue tax discs. I wonder if we are going to experience another government fiasco?  Hope your knees feel better Rob!
