Have cars used in films or on commercial photographs special (illegal) numbers, not used on normal vehicles? I can remember of VC955 in a movie. -Toshi 11:21, 19 Jun 2005 (UTC)

The numbers are official known as "vehicle registration marks". The plates should be "vehicle registration number plates"... double checking. — Insta ntnood 19:25, August 8, 2005 (UTC)

Hong Kong was a British colony. Were there different plates earlier on?49.178.124.124 (talk) 07:19, 16 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

FU and FV plates

FU and FV plates are not necessary cross border cars from Hong Kong. Some registration marks issued around 1993 for local cars are also FU and FV. My previous car, first registration in 1993, had an "FV" number, although it was 100% local. I retained the number for 3 cars later, without any problem. For cars from with their basic registration in China, since they cannot change the Hong Kong registration marks even they replace with a newer car, but local cars usually will retire their registration marks after scrapping. That's why there are less and less local cars with "FU" or "FV" plates. Buhin (talk) 21:02, 3 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
