what colour of blue is that is it a standard colour by any chance?

mine has been resprayed, at one time, (it used to be red) and the colour of yours looks so simelar to mine. im trying to track down the paint code so i can spray my front bumper. its a long shot i know cos it could be any coulour, but that seems so simelar.

Cheers,

Fraser

Haha, that spooked me out! My regn is G*** YBU as well, only it's on a red shortie that wasn't at JAE :'(

Well I never....

Spooked me too! Mines the same reg as was Tooley's - both our cars are silver though. So how does that work then ... do all the cars that get imported at the same time end up with registration marks in sequence? I've now seen 5 Zeds with this registration but no other cars ... surely this can't be a coincidence ...

I think the one in the pic belongs to fitzy

The three letters YBU. relate to the area in witch they were registered.

 

May be they all came in togeather...

ye thats the one in question!

its such a simelar colour to mine

Yeh, as Marcus says, its Fitzy's I believe

Yeh as Legrath said, that marcus said it's fitzy's

Yeh as Legrath said, that marcus said it's fitzy's

this could confuse a stupid person and before you lot say anything thats me f**ked then

But, as mrogers said, it's as Legrath said, that marcus said it's Fitzy's (or so he believes..).

 

I was trying to find out which licensing office the YBU is from, but it turns out that only the BU is a regional identifier (for Manchester! yay!). So the Y is part of the same unique serial number that the preceeding digits are - i.e. for G***YBU: G is the year, ***Y is the unique serial number, BU is the regional identifier for Manchester.

 

In other words, it's still a healthy coincidence that so many of us have the Y combined with the BU. I was expecting to find that they were all reg'd near Southampton docks or something, though... :S

I'm glad to have finally got round to finding out how the pre-2001 regional identifiers worked - as a kid I used to "collect" car regs, and it's something that's been bugging me. I am a sad person.

I think HT was an identifier for bristol

It was mine. The paint is off a BMW. PM me if you still want the paint code

yes as far as I know most imports go on similar plates, ive seen loads of K***BOM's and H***POJ's, also J***AAW is a common one
