Am trying to trace the history of my 1953 Traveller which went to Nuffield Exports on 3rd December 1953. All I know is that the original registration number was probably 12397. It is right hand drive.
Does anyone know which , probably ex Commonwealth, country used 5 digits reg numbers? I know that Guernsey does.
Please pm me if you can help.

Any additional plates/tags affixed to the bulkhead apart from alloy "EX" prefix tag?

well MAlta used numbers only but my 53 van was 3563 but I've' seen other 50s cars with 5 numbers, we are RHD unfortunately when Malta changed the plates over from the British type to MAltese type that is they had letters added the history files were discarded! :S so I will not be able to check if it was in Malta but I heard sotries of British militay taking back the cars with them back to UK.
