The British vehicle registration system dates from 1903 and has evolved over the years. The late Les Newall spent a lifetime researching history of the system and this book is the product of his work. This third edition published this year (2008) updates the previous editions ith minor changes, eight pages of photographs and details how the new system introduced in 2001 has actually worked out in practice. This is recognised as being the most definitive of books on the subject, it not only covering ordinary registration numbers but also special series such as trade plates, diplomatic marks, military registrations and the unique British cherished number system. Anyone wishing to discover the date of issue of a pre-year-letter registration will find this book invaluable as it contains the most detailed information currently available. 308 pages, illustrations, softback
