Two explanations to this one.

1. It was regsitered late,
2. It was an old reg with a 51 in it, like W551 TRD or soemthing - I've made that mistake already myself!!

In the words of Tom Jones, it’s not unusual.

There was a classic on a 51 plate taking part in the British Rally Championship this year. Must have been registered some time after purchase.

You will find the ones doing the rallying are direct from prodrive just sitting there just waiting to be registered

£17.5k for a classic, there's nothing wrong with classics but really who wants one that bad to pay 17.5 for one?
