English Numbers For Old Vehicles

[miniace]

they say it's only for 18,19,300,301 and 302 numbers for now but in later they will consider giving english numbers registration to 65,252 and 253 as well.

Hope 99- is also included to second lotMINIACE

apparently from what i heard was that this is offered to allow older cars to travel on the southern expressway.. as only english numbers are allowed to...

i dont know how far its true.. correct me if im wrong..

[whmsujith]

That is ridiculous to get a English No. to travel on SE. It would have been fair enough had wearing seat belt been mandatory for all vehicles irrespective of No. plate to travel on it.

what about 58 - / 59 - numbers ?

Owners of 58-59 got to sell their vehicles and buy 252 and 253 in order to obtain re validated ..BwaaahaaaaMINIACE

[shanX]

I saw a Prado that has EA- number in a car sale at Borella, is this a new number?

Yes RMV is issuing E series numbers for 18- onwards vehicles at Rs 25000 and plate charges. Entertaining 65 and 99 on case by case basis.

YES, RMV is issuing new numbers from EA series for registered numbers between 18 to 302 series, case by case, regardless of the old number.

(let,s say EA-0001 assigned for 301 number, then EA-0002 can obtain even 19 or 18 car. So just looking at the Number we can’t determine whether it’s a new or old one.)

Only reference is the vehicle’s book. (They include the old number within that)

then EL and EN will be not taken, because of old English cars???

i heard the same thing. because if the condition of the vehicle is good,there will be no problem if a 18,19 & 300,301 car goes in 100kmph on expressway

and also heard that there will be an inspection of the vehicle prior to the number change.

For Old EL, EN, CY … they reserved the AA series

Dude seems you didnt understand the point mentioned. He mentioned about the newly issued 'E' series reaching letters EY,EL & EN.

MINIACE

[Amarapala]

I got the point,  but remember Old Format doesn't has a dash (-)  between English letters and the 4digit number and also there's a special registration category defined in RMV for those numbers.

So I don't think there's any requirement for skip those  EL, EN.

Further if those Old English number fellows want New English number, they can take one from AA series.

No it is not mate.I checked with RMV regarding the same. No directive received on this they mentioned.only 18- onwards vehicles are entertained after thorough screening as of now.

MINIACE

[Amarapala]

Ya U R right dude, @ d moment they do not  issue AA series, but gradually they start those series as well.

clue: they'll start for Vans within next 2 months.
