License plate S1
-
Saw Mercedes with "S1" plate with Singapore flag in front of bonnet outside MOE building. Wonder who uses the car "S1?"
-
I suppose that will be the minister of education or some other minister ba..
-
Thought only the President can sit in the S1 AND have the Singapore mini flag fly at the same time
-
Its my car lah.
Next time don't be shy....come up, knock on the window and say "hi gentlerock" ok?
-
That will be the President if I am not wrong..
-
Yup.
-
I thought president is SEP 1, unless they have changed it.Originally posted by nightsky87:Thought only the President can sit in the S1 AND have the Singapore mini flag fly at the same time -
well i also dun think S1 is president's merc... maybe some foreign delegate?
-
i thought foreign delegates' plates end with "CD"?Originally posted by Altis84:well i also dun think S1 is president's merc... maybe some foreign delegate? -
Eh during NDP I saw the licence plate of the president's car is S1 leh... Plus there's a s'pore flag at the bonnet right? so dun think it's foreign embassy's car.. Perhaps it's just a merc belonging to the govt and anyone high ranked can use it.
-
should be the president.
-
Well, the "S1" seems like it could do with some serious cleaning and polishing! No pride!
-
the most highest rank in police force uses spf1 as car plate
-
Foreign Delegates will use State vehicles.
those cars with CD plates are for embassies.
S1... i guess it is state vehicle.
As far as i know now, on a daily basis... our president will travel in a normally registered Mercedes. I think this policy change is in line with increased security measures.
but for formal events... the number plate go to SP1 or SEP1.. not sure which. -
Well maybe S1 vehicle is not allocated for a specific person? Its been used whenever necessary loh... maybe the number plate will only be screwed on if the car needs to be used...if not the merc will have a normal plate.
-
But the mini Singapore flag in Singapore only President can fly.. Haha
-
Yup. Embassy cars end with CD, their respective govt buy them in Singapore and they are allocated CD.Originally posted by kc_leung:i thought foreign delegates' plates end with "CD"?
Only the ambassador can sit in the CD car with the 01 and fly their respective country's flag. For example, let's say China embassy code in Singapore is 86. Then the car will be SUX 8601 CD. -
lol.. bad choice...Originally posted by nightsky87:Yup. Embassy cars end with CD, their respective govt buy them in Singapore and they are allocated CD.

but ur right, i used to work with my uncle at the French Embassy at Cluny Park.. It has a fleet of 3 Mercs, 2 BMs and 1 MPV(dunno wat make). With the rooster at the end of the hood flying. -
Should be the car of a visiting foreign delegate.
The President rides in a car bearing the Istana crest. It does not have a registration number.
The Prime Minister rides in a car with normal number plate. He gets motorcycle outriders, and two security cars, one in front one at the back. The one in the back usually carries a sign flashing "keep clear".
Other ministers drive their own cars. Those on official duties may ride in government cars, which are usually Mercedes E-class or Lexus. The junior ones don't get security cars. -
S1 if i am not wrong is used by the president or VVIP of other countries for official event. Remembered few years back when Philipines lady president come and pass by PS follow by convey of 10 TP bikes... she was using the S1 with full support of TP.. no other cars allowed to block or follow too close and they purposely stop all traffic just to let the car go first non-stop. But Then again, saw a suv cum minibus type of vehicle with the Plate number WLX1. Fully tinted glass all around at least a 85%tint as though like pure black. wonder who use that car coz for what i kno west malaysia got no WLX plate. That car was like fully armoured type with hugh crash bar and big side bars for pple to stand on. Its black in colour and definately its quite brand new.. can see the car shiny as it drove pass me. Saw it yesterday around evening time near west coast highway going towards telok blangha. Wonder anyone have seen it before?
-
aiya is the president of brunei.
-
I saw the "S1" again tonight. It was driving out of the VIP complex at Changi Airport, this time with two traffic police outriders, plus a van, traveling on ECP. No Singapore flag on the "S1" this time, though. Wonder who's in the "S1".

Just crash your car into S1, then you will know who the car belongs to liao mah.......................
