Re: Personalised plate?
My Z4 had a irregular plate when I bought it. I was gonna change it, then couldn't be bothered, then figured that when its clean and polished, you just wouldn't be able to tell how old it was which was nice.
Best two plates I have seen are on a Jag XK and Range Rover on my commute. "2B" (always parked on the left) and "NOT 2B". They must have cost or now be worth well north of half a million, possibly closer to a million though given they are parked on a driveway on the Chelsea embankment, the guy who owns them is probably not short a bob or two. |

Re: Personalised plate?
I am quite lucky in having a 3 letter surname, so i get ORR on my plate, not many with the surname, so easy to recognise it's mine. I only got it cos we bought a Discovery and the plate was SA 52 VDV. The missus flattly refused to drive around in a car that had VD !!! (same as STD for the young 'uns)
Only downside is when you sell the car, it costs £80 to transfer and the paperwork is a pain in the ****. just make sure you transfer / retain before you sell the motor. i got a quick sale and it caused all kinds of sh*te. Plus the insurance charge you another £20 to change their paperwork, Barstewards.

Re: Personalised plate?
I have an old personalised plate (from before I was married 15 years ago!), I love it because it is mine, and it always reminds me of the day my dad brought it for me, I had been shooting at the national championships, came 5th my dad was really rude and asked me if there were only five people in the class, realised what a git he had been and brought it for me to apologise, the only time he has ever apologised, worth remembering.

Re: Personalised plate?
Thought about this thread at the weekend. I had forgotten about my cousins numberplate on his race van he's had since he was 18 (or 21). He's always raced as 88 when he can.
