Kentekens zijn toch te koop in het VK? Tis niet dat ze móésten zoeken naar een V8 met precies de juiste platen. Wel zou er dan natuurlijk maar net een *982FKL plaat te koop moeten zijn.

Clarkson is voor het filmen uitgelegd dat, gezien z'n trackrecord, hij bij 1 verkeerd woord hij op straat zou staan.

Hm, hoe zat dat dan met de M600LHD en M600RHD platen op Hammonds Noble toen ze in Italië reden? Dat letter-3 cijfers-3 letters formaat zie je op de weg ook maar is voor zover ik weet ouder dan pak 'm beet 2011 toen die aflevering is opgenomen.

quote:

The current system for Great Britain was introduced on 1 September 2001. Each registration index consists of seven characters with a defined format. From left to right, the characters consist of:

• A local memory tag or area code, consisting of two letters which together indicate the local registration office. As of December 2013 all local offices have been closed, but local memory tags still apply. The letters I, Q and Z are not used as local office identifiers; Z can be used only as a random letter.

• The first of these two letters is a mnemonic standing for the name of the broad area where the registration office is located. This is intended to make the registration more memorable than an arbitrary code. For example, A is used as the first character in all registrations issued by the three offices located in the vicinity of East Anglia;

• A two-digit age identifier, which changes twice a year, in March and September. The code is either the last two digits of the year itself if issued between March and August (e.g. "10" for registrations issued between 1 March and 31 August 2010), or else has 50 added to that value if issued between September and February the following year (e.g. "60" for registrations issued between 1 September 2010 and 28 February 2011);

• A three-letter sequence which uniquely distinguishes each of the vehicles displaying the same initial four-character area and age sequence. The letters I and Q are excluded from the three-letter sequence, as are combinations that may appear offensive (including those in foreign languages). Due to batch registrations of new cars, it is common for cars with "neighbouring" letter sequences to be of the same or very similar specifications.

Het schijnt sowieso dat het over en uit is met Top Gear in deze bezetting na het aankomende seizoen.. Er zijn geen nieuwe contract getekend las ik op Final Gear.
