Has anyone else noticed that, whenever Tiger have to replace a number plate, they don't do it in the current font like they should; they do it in the OLD ONE!
No-one else is allowed to do this and neither are Tiger!
Current offenders are:
269 - YJ05 WCP (front)
280 - MX08 DHP (front)
354 - MW52 PZE (front & rear)
either 401, 2, 3 or 4 - YJ64 DZN, O, P or R (rear)
545 - AE55 VGD (front & rear)
617 - YJ06 LFO (front)
622 - YJ07 JLU (front & rear)
624 - KIG 7304 (front)
626 - KIG 7306 (front)
either 663, 4 or 5 - YJ60 GFV, X or Y
667 - YJ10 DFC (front)
725 - YJ58 FFP (front & rear I think)
either 760, 1 or 2 [or possible more than 1] - YT60 YYM, N, O (front & rear)
either 782, 3, 5, 6 or 7 [or possibly more than 1] - YN03 UVZ, WA, WR, S or T (front, and possibly rear aswell)

The witch hunt on tiger has started again then. I'm sure other operators have/are doing the same. Why are people just picking on Tiger and no-one else?

bcoz it IS only a Tiger thing - any replacement number plates have to be in the new font; Tiger are doing theirs in a variation of the OLD FONT which they're not supposed to be doing
EDIT: or should I say, which their not ALLOWED to do

If WYP have a problem about it, they'll probably stop the bus, and inform the driver, and issue a fine to the company. Or when it goes for MOT, they'll fail it and the vehicle in question will get shiny new plates. I don't like seeing modern vehicles driving round with silver/white lettering on black plates, like really old vintage vehicles do, but, it's not my problem, I just let it go, just like you SHOULD. |

You could always inform the DVLA or Police, must admit I am a massive fan of grassing people up as I can't stand that ethos of keeping quiet because you don't want to get someone in trouble no matter what they've done.

I think a thread about the font of bus registration plates has meant this forum has hit a new low. I'm sure it didn't used to be like this.

Agreed westyorkshirebus. I'm not saying what they're doing is right, but it seems some people are just nitpicking at Tiger because they haven't got any cowboys to pick on, and picking up on the wrong font on a registration plate is really a new low. Harrogate Coach Travel are up in front of the TC but haven't seen anyone nitpick at them recently...

Agreed, don't like the continued "nit picking" on YT, but you have to admit, 90% of their buses do look scruffy on the outside with different paint colours, dented panels, scratches and half tiger logo's everywhere !

I'm glad to see within the last few months they've finally started to replace the bogus plates in the old font with ones in the new font! There are still a few 'rogues' here and there but on the whole they seem to've had a crackdown!
