About W 18

Dateless registrations avoid an obvious vehicle age marker, which can make short combinations more flexible across prestige vehicles and long-term private ownership. The W index mark traces back to Sheffield, now associated with South Yorkshire. At 3 characters, W 18 sits in a very short collector tier.
