              The "JE" part of your reg plate denotes Peterborough for the original issued area.

                    Hi Jay

                    Print off the form below, fill it out and send it off to the DVLA along with a cheque for £5.00

                    They will sed you all the information they hold on the car, which could be the original reg document or bill of sale

                      As above, i get that as being Peterborough.

                      RS dealers their were T C Harrison.

                      They had no logo o he plates, just dealer name, location and phone number.



                      Cheers

                        the clue my chilly arse'd mate can be in the last three letters of a normally registered car if were on about a uk registered ,the only problem is if the car had a private/cherished transfer and then got a different area plate.

                        if the car reg was say from liverpool vro it could of come from st helens,liverpool,birkenhead. same as if it was from chester vro it could of come from wrexham,warrington or chester.So its best not guessing as its not fool proof looking which rs dealer was near a certain vro.
                        the easy way to find out rather than guessing if its got no history is to do the dvla check and that will tell you the garage name of the supplying ford dealer.

                        its easy when yer know how

                            a lot of ford own cars were not registered through dealers as they were done by the manufacturer,so theres a chance that your oo ev ar pu vw etc may not of had a dealer logo until sold off through the ford closed auctions.

                              VH denotes Huddersfield, so there is a good chance it was a Polar Ford of Huddersfield supplied car at first registration.
