Anyone know this typeface?

Thanks in advance.

I think it's Alpha Headline, from here LINETO.COM
It's based on British car licence plate lettering.

THANKS!!! You're right...it is Alpha Headline. Does anyone know if there is a way to purchase this typeface? Mitsubishi seems to have rights to this typeface.

Thanks Hunch for the link. I purchased the Charles Wright typeface (UK license plate typeface) but the letter spacing and word spacing is very inconsistent. Does anyone know which program I could use to manually fix this? I've used Fontographer awhile back....is there something else someone can recommend? What is the best way to go about fixing this issue.

Thanks all.
