Hi
I saw a recent or possibly very recent Bentley on the M6 near Crewe today with an number plate that read KIWI 962 without the serifs.
Yes the Is or 1s could jhave been either but I can't find IW or WI as a county issue and I am presuming the othe upright is a fake addition as surely no county issued 3 letters and 4 numbers.


OR is there something I've missed?

Most likely KIW 1962 - a plate from Northern Ireland.

Yes, most probably KIW 1962. That comes up as a Chrysler 300C, which does look a bit Bentley-like, to the extent that some people have apparently adorned them with Bentley grilles and badges.
