Dealer Plates and how do I know where mine came from
How do you find out where your car was first sold Chris?
I have a sneaky suspicion it was Liverpool?
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.
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.
