About 8 BE
Dateless
8 BE is a dateless registration: one number followed by two letters, with no age identifier. That means it can be put on a vehicle of any age, old or new, and it never dates the car it is on. Short dateless registrations like this one are among the most sought after.
Private registrations move between owners through the DVLA: once a price is agreed, the registration can go straight onto your vehicle, or be held on a retention certificate until you are ready to use it.
