Old Car - New Plate?

[Innoko]

Tanong lang po, kasi marami na akong nakikitang ganito...Pwede ba yung below circa 1994 model na corolla ay ganito plaka (XBR ##3)? Kasi yung lumang GLi ko, 1994 pero ang plaka ko "TNE" umpisa...Tanong lang po.

Taken this morning along Kalayaan Makati...number coding violator pa. Sinita nung yelow boys ni Binay pero pinaalis din agad. Bakit kaya?

[Elroi]

yes pwede yan on some (legal) instances...

gov't vehicles with red plates, taxis/puv with yellow plates sold or converted into private..

meron kami old VW naka junk.. we surrenderred the plates back then at nung nairestore sya, niregister ulit and new plates na binigay..

[Innoko]

Either the vehicle is a carnapped vehicle -or- a recovered one.

Our five-year old car was carnapped some years back. We were able to recover it after a few days, with another plate number, probably stolen too.

So, we surrendered both to the LTO and they issued us another plate number which is a new one. The reason according to them is that they cannot issue our old plate number because it is still in the list of carnapped plate numbers, just in case the goons use it.

Pwede din personalized plates. Kasi tingnan nyo, PILIPINAS pa yung naka sulat sa ibaba, ibig sabihin lumang plates na. Kung X series yan ng year 2006, iba na nakasulat.

That is also what happens to recovered stolen vehicles if it is sold through bidding (e.g. nabayaran na ng insurance yung owner, no point returning the car).

Not personalized yan. AFAIK, thats a normal issue plate. It is normal for this plate series to to have PILIPINAS in it. It started with WSA-111 until XB*-***. Previously it was ANGAT PINOY 2004 (panahon ni ERAP) which started at WN*-*** until WR*-***. Prior to it was PHILIPPINES 2000 (panahon ni tabako) which started from TSA-111 until WM*-***.

Starting from XCA-111 until XD*-***, plates had PERLAS NG SILANGAN on the lower portion and PILIPINAS on the upper portions of the plate. Starting from XEA-111 until present, the RIZAL plates which has MATATAG NA REPUBLIKA (M. Manila) or PILIPINAS (for the Provincial issued plates) inscribed on the bottom.
