| Opmerkingen |
Britain introduced petrol rationing twice in the postwar period — once during the 1956 Suez Crisis and again briefly during the 1973–74 oil embargo. On both occasions, coupon books were printed in anticipation of full rationing but the schemes were either abandoned or curtailed before widespread distribution. The 1973 books are particularly well-documented: they were printed, serialized, and held in government warehouses, then destroyed without ever entering public hands — making surviving examples scarce precisely because they were never actually used.
The "N2 units" designation reflects a tiered allocation system designed around vehicle engine size.
