Private Registration - S2 DKG

I've had this plate on retention for a while but there's not much point in holding onto it indefinately. If anyone can give it a good home then let me know. I was after around £400 for it as it is a decent looking plate (popular letter & low number) but could be open to reasonable offers. Any cost to transfer will be covered by the buyer and not me (not too sure there are any costs as it's already on retention).

As the title shows, the plate is S2 DKG. You could argue that it could be rearranged to look like 'SID' but really it's the initials of 'DKG'. It's for sale on RegTransfers for £800 but I'd happily sell it here for less as stated above.

I've got the actual plates too which I'll let you have; just need to check the holes are in the right place.

Here's a picture of it on my old motor...

I'd hadn't even thought about the Porsche link. I'll explore that avenue if no-one here expresses an interest.

BUMP...

Placed onto Ebay (Item number: 170264968232) with a starting bid of only £50.

Retention ceritificate is about to expire so just want someone else to get some use out of it.

An absolute bargain for anyone just wanting a smarten up their car with a nice plate (whether the initials mean anything or not - they mean nothing to me!!!).

Cheers Chris, much appreciated. Hadn't thought of that link. I've posted on a Porsche forum too (even though S2 Porsche's are too old for this plate (98/99 I think!!).

Isn't the new M-DCT transmission, 'DKG' in German? (original name)

When anyone used to ask me why my plate was S2 DKG when my initials are RP I used to tell them I bought the car off Duncan Goodhew and he left the plate on. Also, that lane '2' was his favourite lane to swim in!!! His middle name is actually Alexander according to 'Wikipedia' - luckily no one knew that!!!

Got my first bid for £50 - at least it's going to go at last... ...5 days to go...

Are you after a cut Chris

Along that path there's also DKG Structures Ltd in Croydon... ...might be worth the price of a phone call just to push up the bidding!!!

Four watchers, One bid... ...still at £50.

Thought I'd have a laugh and call a few 'DKG' companies on the 192 website. Got hold of two, one seemed quite interested, already got a DKG plate but mine is better. Good luck to DKG Building & Contractors I say!!! Can't get hold of DKG Architects or DKG Properties though - they're the boys with all the cash

To answer KL2DC, yes you're right...

"DKG: DoppelKupplung Getriebe, means "dual clutch transmission" in german"
