    Looks like a fake plate, none of the online databases can find it.

    Got sent an email by non-CCEer -

    "

    I put the number in to http://1stchoice.co.uk (YP57 YGO) and it did actually come up with a van match - so looks like it could be the number for the van in question.

    FORD TRANSIT 280 SWB LR PANEL VAN (INTEGRAL) 2198cc (2007) DIESEL.

    Good luck to the guys in recovering the bikes. I'll share on FB.

    Cheers

    Presume police have access to whichever database provided that answer(?)

    national.co.uk says the number belongs to "2007 FORD DIESEL PANEL VAN (TRANSIT 110 T280S FWD)." so a slightly different version

    first attempt earlier today gave this message:
    "We are experiencing a temporary problem with the data provider that matches your vehicle registration number to a tyre size, this is usually rectified very quickly so please try again in a few minutes.
