RMweb Premium melmerby Posted March 10, 2023 RMweb Premium Share Posted March 10, 2023 (edited) (letter)MS was issued for Stirling/shire from 1903 onwards Whether "LMS (numbers) T" was ever valid is another matter. T was 78/9 as a suffix but the prefix letter might not have been on L MS at that time. Edited March 10, 2023 by melmerby 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, as a separate point, just “LMS (numbers)” would take you up into the Compounds in the LMS number scheme. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

T was 78/9 as a suffix but the prefix letter might not have been on L MS at that time. F was the only suffix letter letter used with LMS so LMS264T would never have been issued unless anyone has subsequently had it. I thought you could check the DVLA personalised plate option to see if it's available to buy, but it just throws up what it thinks are similar plates in upcoming auctions. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here is Oz, we only have up to 6 characters, but LMS264 is available in Victoria. Just can't figure out the price, so many choices! Either $195 or $495 I think. These would have previously been issued in the 1970s. Edited March 10, 2023 by kevinlms More info 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium melmerby Posted March 10, 2023 RMweb Premium Share Posted March 10, 2023 There have been plenty of 'desirable' combinations with Birmingham's previous allocation of letters. Years ago a friend of mine had 6 BOB which was on a Ford Anglia, someone's now got it on a Porsche. (10 BOB is on a Landrover) The Lord Mayor's vehicle is LOM 1 (IIRC Coventry had COV1) HOP 1 N is on a Lexus 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Phil Mc Posted March 11, 2023 RMweb Premium Share Posted March 11, 2023 ' THE 1' & ' THE 2' are the numberplates on the mayoral cars in Barnsley ( ' HE ' being the plate code for the local area. ) They're quite possibly the 2 items of greatest asset value on the council register !!

RMweb Premium PhilJ W Posted March 11, 2023 RMweb Premium Share Posted March 11, 2023 Chelmsford council once had the number F1 on the mayoral car, it was sold off and later sold on for a lot more than the council got for it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
