FO (as well as yu, sk, ff and a load of others) were little used (mostly scottish and welsh) plate areas which were often used for age related plates (non transferable). The years in which they were issued was great, rather than things like CO (plymouth) which sold out pretty quickly.

172 JFO is my old S replica with a 1300GT lump in it, yes it's an age related plate which was on it when I bought it. I sold it to Bryn's late father who brought it to many of our MCR displays.
