[Skimking]

Anyone out there who had , around the late 70's , the number plate HS 5040  on a silver VW golf ?

It is quite possible that that plate belonged the Henry Spencer Estate agents. When I worked for them they had several vehicle plates starting with HS. Just a thought?

HS was the Suffix (pre Preffix) number issued to vehicles registered in Glasgow.

ND - Manchester

KW - Sheffield 

etc,etc,

Thanks everyone for comments. Was looking ,in particular, for driver of silver VW Golf MK 1 around the late 70's , say 1978 to 1980 with private reg HS 5040 ; as I have an old photograph showing the car behind me with twin headlights and sunroof open, similar to MK 1 GTI setup.

Any idea who owns the car/ number plate and if so were they the driver of said golf mk1 in late 70's ; the latter criteria being the most important.  Thanks.

Finding if a vehicle is still registered with DVLA (or not) is quite easy  search .Gov and follow the links.

Finding who the current owner is to contact them and or find out where the vehicle is kept is a different thing altogether

for obvious reason's.

My reg plate is WK65 xxx.  Registered in Truro, but i live in Somerset. Where the car orginated is not necessarily where is at present.

I don't remember KW on the pre 2000 plates being Sheffield, I thought it was Hull?

YL to YU is Sheffield

SA to SY is Scotland
