Talk:Irish vehicle registration plates
|
This is a most excellent page. Giving the basic information in an easily accessible way, yet linking to the COMPLETE ORIGINAL specifications! Fantastic job, whoever you are. This is how Wikipedia should be. Way too many articles try to rehash original materiel, without referring to it or linking to it.
Does anyone know about a registration with 666 as its sequence number?
I remember a few years ago hearing a radio program that said registrations were never given out with the number 666 in it!
Can anyone shed light on this?

- I know for a fact that this is false. Ironically, a religion teacher in secondary school drove a black car (A Ford Orion I believe) with the reg no. of 666. (I kid you not!) zoney ▓ ▒ talk 23:11, 4 Sep 2004 (UTC)
NI regs
Addition by an anon IP:
- Please note: There have been noted cases of vehicles from Northern Ireland registering their cars in the UK (as must be done) but to the Republic's standard such as:
- :County Armagh - AH
I seriously doubt this is true. Evidence is needed before such a far-fetched claim can be inserted.
As far as I am aware, NI reg's continue to use the old British system for Ireland (that used to be all-Ireland). I do not know whether they yet use the EU style number plates. In England "GB" is used on these, but that would be technically incorrect for NI (they aren't in Great Britain, but are in the United Kingdom).
