 BMW Mystery Numberplate - Robin O'Reliant
Back in the day Mrs O'Reliant and I bought a couple of Pug 205s for driving tuition. The cars had consecutive number plates ending 25 and 26. Off we trundled and worked away in them for a couple of weeks till I took a lady for her test at Barking only to have the examiner come back and say she couldn't conduct the test because the registration on the tax disc did not match the number plate. The dealer had mixed up the discs and we both had each others. To be fair it was a genuine mistake and the dealer not only covered the cost of a retest but chucked in extra for a couple of lessons too.

The other examiners at Barking later told me they were disgusted that mine had been so fussy as they knew us well and it was obvious what had happened.
