Why is this MB on a W Prefix plate if registered 26/1/2001?

This appeared on ebay recently. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/394417810525

 

It has a W prefix plate, but according to the MOT check site was registered 26th January 2001.

 

The listing doesn't mention it being a personal plate. As far as I can tell, it should be on an X prefix plate if it was first registered on that date.

It's a strange one. The tax checker says the same, but as it's against the reg then you'd have thought that it must be legit. Maybe with it being close to the changeover it was a result of the time taken to process the registration or something? Need someone from a car dealership :lol:
