Plate Details

CR17 OFT is a current-style registration issued in March 2017. Current style plates use a two-letter area code, a two-digit year code (17), and a three-letter random sequence. The 17 area code identifies it as originating from the Swansea DVLA office, covering Wales. Under DVLA rules, this plate can be assigned to any vehicle first registered on or after March 2017 — it cannot make a vehicle appear newer than it actually is.

Registration History

CR17 OFT was first made available in March 2017, issued by the Swansea DVLA office covering Wales. CR17 OFT has DVLA auction history, having been offered at a DVLA auction in March 2026. The DVLA cherished transfer programme was launched in 1989, opening previously reserved registrations to the public for the first time. Plates are selected for DVLA auctions based on their perceived collectability and desirability — an auction appearance is a recognised indicator of a registration's historical market standing and collector appeal.
