Privately Owned Vehicles
From 1912 to 2001 Gibraltar number plates consisted of the letter "G" (for Gibraltar) followed by a series of digits issued in numerical order. The maximum number of digits was five, so the first registration plate would have been "G 1" and the last was "G 99999". A new system was introduced in October 2001, in anticipation of running out of registration numbers once reaching "G 99999". The new system consists of the letter "G" followed by four digits (1000-9999) and another letter. The last letter represents the series. For example, series A consists of all registration plates from "G 1000 A" to "G 9999 A". The next series is B, and so on. Currently (October 2012), registration plates in Gibraltar are in series D. The European flag is also now featured, along with Gibraltar's international vehicle registration GBZ.

Famous quotes containing the words privately, owned and/or vehicles:
“Rape is a culturally fostered means of suppressing women. Legally we say we deplore it, but mythically we romanticize and perpetuate it, and privately we excuse and overlook it.”
—Victoria Billings (b. 1945)
“Speak as you think, be what you are, pay your debts of all kinds. I prefer to be owned as sound and solvent, and my word as good as my bond, and to be what cannot be skipped, or dissipated, or undermined, to all the eclat in the universe. This reality is the foundation of friendship, religion, poetry, and art.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“Television programming for children need not be saccharine or insipid in order to give to violence its proper balance in the scheme of things.... But as an endless diet for the sake of excitement and sensation in stories whose plots are vehicles for killing and torture and little more, it is not healthy for young children. Unfamiliar as yet with the full story of human response, they are being misled when they are offered perversion before they have fully learned what is sound.”
—Dorothy H. Cohen (20th century)
