Get your kicks with plate 66! Dealerships welcome in plate change day

9:34 am, September 1, 2016

IT’S THE start of 66-plate season and already the cars have been rolling off the forecourts.

Car dealers up and down the country stayed open overnight to welcome in new plate day and hand over the first cars to excited customers. Those burning the midnight oil posted pictures on Twitter, some of which you can see below.
