Plate Details

WEA 17H is a suffix-style registration. The suffix letter H at the end of the plate identifies it as a 1969 registration. Suffix plates were the standard UK format from 1963 to 1983. Under DVLA rules, WEA 17H can be assigned to any vehicle first registered in 1969 or earlier. Suffix plates with strong initials or short numbers are among the most collectable formats available.
