One of the guys at work has G65 SVS on his little crappy red hatchback... I can't decide whether to see if I can buy it off him (Which I'm sure wouldn't be a problem at all, it's a knackered old car, and that's just the plate that it happens to have) or if my long standing belief that they're just a little bit naff is stronger...

Should I go for it?

I actually don't like the new style of regestrations, hence why I got an old style one with just two numbers on the car.

Agree that pepole that use all sorts of screws and things to make it look vaguely like a word are extremely sad, it's like either it means something or it doesn't, no one's going to be impressed if you've made some random collection of letters and numbers look like it says 'Turnip' from a mile away!

I didn't want a personal plate on my bike, but think this would look

on a Suzuki SV650S

D1 SVS

It costs £999

I might go for somthing similar though

They start at £250

The only thing is, it would have to stay with the bike. Unless, of course, my next bike is a SVS

I bought R11 YSF, which spaced correctly spells:
RHYS F
which is my name.
Didn't really think i'll look cool by buying it, in fact i've had it on retention since i bought it 5 or so years ago, but simply as investments they're great. Cost me £350ish and registration firms sell nearly identical ones, R11 YSG, for £1500.
Quentin Wilson said he'd always liked them as you can buy them, put them on your car to stand out a bit and then sell them hopefully for a bit of a profit and you'v enjoyed it too.
