You may notice that a further complication to the number system came in 1967 when , under pressure from the motor car industry the changeover date was moved to August in an attempt to smooth out new car puchasing by the public.

It may also be noted that the letters I and Z ( used for N.Ireland) are missing as are Q ( reserved for kit cars and repaired write offs etc) and the letter U ( reason unknown).
