FIND OUT WHERE YOUR O.S.F WAS REGISTERED?

[Muggy Bonehead]

Stumbled across this a little while ago, if you scroll right down to page 8, it has the area codes to tell you where your car was registered by using the second two letters, for example CPA 528T, PA=Guildford

Only for post 1974 cars though, I've yet to find anything on earlier plates.

Heres the link...

mine is from Carlisle!!

[Noodles]

Mine says chemsford, but i know it was done in Tipree

[Twinkle]

mine says cardiff but im not too sure if thats right as it would mean that both my cortina and the 4 door escort came from there and it would be a bit of a coincidence that they had consecutive plates, travelled across the country to both be owned by me

[hotrodholty]

My one of my mk2's came from Cardiff and the other from Peterbourgh.
