    the dealer can't book the numbers it wants, e.g Peugeot in Galway can't book 107, 207, 307, 308 and 407 unless they're going to register them as demos. the number has to booked for the eventual owner and not just ordered on spec.

    If you request the number in the garage name, you don't have to nominate the car at the time. You then have a number in your pocket to offer at deal time.

    The only drawback on this is that the customer will be 2nd owner on their car as you have to reg the car to the dealership first.

    so what number are you thinking of getting, just out of interest

    I don't think Ford have released the official bhp figure for the RS yet, it'll be somewhere in the 280-300 range. They claim to have eliminated torque steer with their revolutionary new front suspension design.:rolleyes:

    I had to book xxC999 for my bike, and xxC888 for my car, and I received no special favours from the VRO for being a Dealer let me tell you.

    Generally, as you go back the years, there will be all sorts of numbers not taken. Most counties reserve xx-x-01 to xx-x-200 and sell these at 315 Euro like an normal plate, so if you UK import, you can assign a low number to the car to make it less obvious. Also, you'll find popular combinations are rarely purchased and remain reserved by the VRO - each year the VRO reserve the usual suspects like 318, 320, 911, 77 (TT), 24 (Z4), but they also keep the interesting ones like 222, 333, 444, 1000, 2000, 3333, 4444, etc. If anyone was looking for an interesting reg, that'd be the way to go.

    I imagine that'll be a December special with the bumber sales we're expecting next year.

    So do non-dickheads.

    They just don't feel the overwhelming need to draw attention to themselves;)...
