NP Registration Area Code

Post by Kriss707 »

I've been noticing a bit of a trend with Rover registration numbers lately.

The old style NP Area Code keeps popping up, several pictures of cars for sale & people seeking their old cars on here & Facebook seem to be **** *NP. I myself revived a 218TD M32 RNP during lockdown last year.

The NP denotes the cars were registered at the DVLA's Worcester office in Worcestershire.

I was just wondering why there's such a concentration of cars registered there, was there a large Rover dealership or was it a demographics thing. Or maybe just more have survived from this area & if so why ?

Or maybe it's just a coincidence.

Starting used to be quite a big dealer at the time. It was where I first saw a Tomcat in Nightfire with the Red Piccadilly and Leather interior.
