    How Rare is your " R "

    This table is about 6 months old but it gives a good indication of numbers floating about. Its genuinely from the dvla it was sourced by someone else i just saved the pictures

    Ive tried to find the 70 series facts and figures and cant find it anywhere

    I cant remember who posted the table up in the first place, but they might be able to sort it. IIRC it was posted in early April 09.
