What's included with your purchase

Plate Details

GBR 800M is a suffix-style registration. The suffix letter M at the end of the plate identifies it as a 1973 registration. Suffix plates were the standard UK format from 1963 to 1983. Under DVLA rules, GBR 800M can be assigned to any vehicle first registered in 1973 or earlier. Suffix plates with strong initials or short numbers are among the most collectable formats available.

Registration History

GBR 800M was first made available in July 2012. The original issuing office for this combination is Sunderland C.B.C.. Local council and county borough offices issued plates within their geographic area — the issuing office identifies the regional origin of the registration. GBR 800M has DVLA auction history, having been offered at a DVLA auction in July 2012. 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.
