For the edification of the non-UK members on the list - what is the big
deal about having a "Q" plate anyway? I more-or-less understand the UK
age-related numberplate system, but why is this considered such a shame,
and why would the registering body care anyway? Here in the States, in most
(but not all) states the plates go with the owner, not the car, so a car
would have had as many registrations as owners. Sometimes more, Maine likes
to issue new plates with new numbers every five years or so.
Just curious,
