When we had a new SP sprayer I bought -
SP67YER
Didn’t realise I couldn’t put it on a vehicle that that doesn’t have an MOT.
DVLA took it back and refunded me.

that does not prevent me having an opinion and freedom to express it if i choose to however
this is not North Korea
My opinion is that valuable plate, bought when i was a member, has no use to the nfu or its members so should be sold and proceeds donated to farming charities such as FCN

Of course they use it - it’s a PR tool.
whats it selling?
maybe insurance ? if it is should be NFUM 1 surely?
if its the national farmers union .. literally, do you think it has retained members / recruited /will recruit more members ?

While looking at an old cine film, i observed my granddads maroon jag had the number
JAG 85
Dunno what became of it

Actually that's a really good idea,seriously...
really ? so it generates more income than its value ?
i seriously doubt that, in fact i would say it sets entirely the wrong impression of uk agriculture........ ie we can all afford VERY expensive plates on our toyota pickups
sell it and spend the cash on REAL PR if that’s what members want ? or better still give the cash to farming charities and do some actual good
its simply just another shining example of consumerism , that incredible selfishness that will end the world prematurely ... well done guys .

How does buying a number plate contribute to the end of the world?

Was that genuine?
I recall looking that one up about the time they were released and it wasn’t available, maybe he nabbed it before me but my memory is telling me it wasn’t released.

I tried to buy P15SED off the DVLA but they wouldn't release it so I tried P15SUP but same result.
I did have TOM 808S years ago on a Fiat 132 sold the car for not much ,900 I think to a bloke called Tom Roberts .
Bet it's worth a fortune now if the plate is still about .
Tried to buy RHY5 for my dad back in the eighties but failed , if I remember correctly,back then it was in the exchange and mart for £280. Someone beat me to it .
