12 Plate

Anyone picking one up tomorrow?

Dads got one on the drive now, delivering it to my cousin later :P

No, I'll never buy a new car unless I have loads of disposable income, and it would have to be a good car. I'll never understand the mindset of people that will buy a brand new car because it's on a new registration plate, than the same car on year old with 10,000 miles on it for about £3000 less.

I'd buy a new car for sure, but not just because a new registration came out... custom numberplates hiding age ftw

She needed a new car anyway so why not get a new plate? :P

ye ours used to be that.... like mine is 'T' which is 1999, 'S' is 1998, 'R' 1997, 'P' 1996 etc etc

There seems to be a lot of small cars with 12 plates. So far I have seen a Ford KA and some Hyundai thing, and I think a Peugeot 106. I could of sworn when the 11 plate came out there were loads in the first week :/

ours have nothing to do with the car, they go in sequence.. my car could be a 1997 or a 2007 and my plate would still be EYA

Yeah, my cousin's car was a Honda i10 - I dont think I've seen any 'Big' cars with it, only at show rooms and 1 that my Dad came home in for the week end.
