I was working in the motor trade at the time of the "S" reg suffix era and remember the story well.
PEN 1S was actually registered to a vehicle but was quickly recalled by DVLA and replaced, so you won't see it on the roads now.

Sorry to blow your story ..... [which I think was just jesting anyway]

I've seen a yellow Reliant Robin with DEL 80Y plate ....

No joke, really did see the numberplate PEN 15 on the M25. Furthermore, I remember it was in italics, which made it look even like the word. Maybe you're getting mixed up with PEN 1S, which is clearly worse.

You really did see that reg PEN 15.. A car with that on used to park up at a chiropractor's over the road from me in Chorlton, Manchester, around 1990. Belonged to a saloon car racer. Forgotten his name. He must have had a bad back. Unsurprisingly

Maybe he should have 'reclined on a couch', or in lecto recumbit as one might say

Yep, I was thinking letter "S" on the end rather than the number "five".

There's a car parked near my house with bird 5hit on it.

There used to be a Ferrari in the Worthing area with the number plate TOO 510 W arranged to read TOO SLOW

ex boss of mine in the late 80s drove a Ferrari with 'WSV 666' which stood for wrath of satan's vengeance apparently.

Would potential signings go to the Amex now? Isn't the press area & manager's office at the Elite training ground?

I'd imagine they would be shown round the facilities and have a picture taken in front of thr pitch.

Which pitch? There are loads to choose from at Lancing

That was Tim Dutton's I believe - the guy who sold kit cars and those dodgy amphibious cars. He always used to park it up outside Jonesey's back in the day to impress the ladies even though most of the girls in there were half his age.
