It does have an age related plate ( I guess, 3 letters and 3 numbers) and it does state on the V5 it is non transferable. Does that make sense.
Duplicated question/answer deleted. However, IIRC vehicles registered in the “historic” taxation class have non-transferable noted against their registration number on the V5
I don’t believe this is correct, it certainly isn’t on my V5 for my 80”Sent from my iPhone using LRSOC
The number is an age-related one SL.
I think that the most likely explanation for the 1980 date of first registration for the OP's vehicle is that the registration issued on demob was never transferred to DVLC due to the vehicle being off-the-road with the result that the registration was lost, and that some time later the vehicle was put back on the road and was issued with a new age-related registration. It cannot have been registered with DVLC prior to 1980 since it would not have a 1980 DOFR if it had been.It is unlikely that the demob registration was transferred off by a money-grabbing Philistine and an age-related was issued in 1980 to replace it, since DVLC would have know that it was previously registered and it would have retained the original DOFR.
