was wondering what I could dig up on my coupe and came across a website http://regarchive.com/plate/ (insert plate) and mine was first registered in Manchester not that far from me, I'm in bradford must say wasn't expecting it to be so close. Also give you some interesting bits on what we're going on in the year it were new

Interesting website, mine is Chelmsford.

North West London for me

Chelmsford for mine also!

And my red lefty was from Maidstone!

Mine was Chelmsford too!

Probably same place as mine, Pete - that garage had a lot across central and north-west London in its chain. Mine came from the Baker Street showroom. I know 'cos I drove it away!

Desira, if I remember correctly. I suppose I could look at the docs...

Cardiff for mine

The Bee's original plate was first registered in Luton.

I've had to search under the original plate for mine and it comes up as being first registered in South West London

Yellow Plus - Northampton
Inky VT6 - North West London

Come on Pete, and the rest

01.03.1999 - Leeds. So about 20 miles from my door.

I drove all the way to Oxford (Solo Italia) to buy her and bring her pretty much home!

I believe it was a Monday so I was probably at 6th form.

mine was fist registered in Shrewsbury.

Yellow Plus - Maidstone
Sprint 20vt - Guildford

My old LE 20 was registered in Bournemouth where it spent 3 years as a company car for an estate agents. (Sorry Loui, beat you to it!)

I don't need to use that site, all the details are in the paperwork from the selling dealer along with its pdi sheet.

I've got the original sale receipt in my collection too

A slightly less flashy site with the same info on

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vehicle_reg...#Pre-2001_codes

I have no idea why I had it, but as a kiddy I remember having a book with them all listed. Anything to keep me quiet on a motorway journey I suspect!

Now im confused going by that site mine was registered in Luton? and not chelmsford

So am I - Leeds isn't in Lancashire! The Leeds code is right, the county code is next door.

Am I being stupid but when I put my reg in all I get is a msg saying they have found the reg but no other info is displayed?

Click on your reg number further down the page.

Brighton for mine.

Oxford for me - with 2 x years living in France!

No, just the two now and if someone wants it, the 'nana's for sale.

Kingston upon Hull for mine, and I think it stayed on the east coast for the next 17 years, until I bought it 1 month ago. Now in Skipton.

Reading. Previous 2 owners both lived fairly near there, not so near anymore though

The last two letters are what you want to be looking at.
It's a Wikipedia, get it updated if you think it's wrong.

Norwich for my sprinty and Luton for the plus

Epsom, Auckland, New Zealand.
