a treasure forever

William ‘Wullie’ Lister lives in Penicuik, about 10 miles from Edinburgh. Wullie works as a postman, a job he has done for nearly five years, and says that he enjoys life to the full. That enjoyment was recently enhanced by the discovery of his perfect personal registration, W11 LYL (‘Wullie L’).

“I can’t thank Regtransfers enough for finding it for me,” he says. “I have now achieved my goal of buying a number plate with my name on, so I will be selling my two other registrations: M12 WUL (‘Mr Wul’) and M33 TOU (‘Me to You’). I have the registration I have always wanted.”

At 24 years of age, Wullie has been a car enthusiast for the past seven years. He started with “a wee, done-up Peugeot 306”, and has graduated to a luxurious 4.0ltr Range Rover HSE.

“The plate looks absolutely stunning on the Range Rover and it gets comments from a lot of people. Some of those comments are of the jealous kind, unfortunately, but I know I have worked hard and saved hard to get where I am today, and I think I deserve the respect my car and number plate displays.”

As he has had to work so hard, what moved Wullie to spend his money on a private registration?
“There were several reasons why I purchased W11 LYL. Firstly, it obviously represents my name. Perhaps more importantly, I am the 4th generation of William Listers in my family, and I think my number plate helps to keep the name alive. It not only shows off the name, but I will also be able to pass it down to my own son - when, and if, I have one. That remains to be seen, of course!
“I know I will treasure this plate forever.

No doubt, it will be seen on many more stunning cars in the future.”
