Whenever I seem to see a 911 (of various models) being test driven on the tely, why do they always have HUL on the number plate??

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Morning all,
Whenever I seem to see a 911 (of various models) being test driven on the tely, why do they always have HUL on the number plate??
Was just wondering!
Cheers.
Because the plate is owned by Porsche GB and is normally put on turbos. They also own "911 GB" which has appeared on a number of GT3/2 used as a presscar or demonstrator.

911 HUL has also been seen on the odd non turbo such 3.2 club sport.
Seems to move around quite a lot, two consecutive issues of 911 & PW featured completely different turbos, both had the same number plate.
Porsche used to own OPR 911 - again, I remember it on a really nice 911 Club Sport.
Never quite understood the relevance, but may be the person who bought it was dyslexic

911 GB was on one of the course cars at Goodwood last weekend

UL was a central London identifier on the old reg system, the H would just denote when it was issued
I have a book somewhere that tells me when
Bet that was a bestseller.

Pretty sure it was never available to buy .. It was produced by the Met Police stolen vehicle squad and I was issued it when I did my stolen vehicle examiners course
Very handy at times as it would give you the VRO and dates of issue even with the latest style plates combinations are only issued on specific times
