444

[pompei]

I saw three cars today with "private" plates, all with 444 .  Is there any significance to this?

[Jim Bell]

Couldn't afford 12.

[Cavcraft]

Not sure, but in a spooky coincidence I spied a number plate thread today.

[twosmoke300]

It's the same twats that put AAA at the start of their yellow pages ads so they get to the front of the listings

That is freaky, I had the same thought

[Lacquer Peel]

Personalised number plates = shit for cunts.

[worldofceri]

Everybody says that until they've got one.

[Jim Bell]

shit for cunts.

Think my mate Ray has got that on dvd. Exactly what you think would happen happens.

[brickwall]

Yeah, he's the star of the film.

[Bren]

Personal plates.

 

Jensen Healey.

 

This site deffo is'nt what it used to be.

[D Spares & Tyres]

I used to work for a chap who`s surname was Healey

 

He named one son Jensen and the other Austin

 

Seriously!

 

Twat

 

On a more serious note, all my cars have unique registration plates. Thats good enough for me

[Magnificent Rustbucket]

I understand why someone would think they're a waste of money or even a bit silly, but I don't get why some people feel so strongly about private 'plates. Piston Heads has a thread dedicated to hundreds of people venting at least a thousand posts of serious degrees of venomous anger and resentment over them. It is quite amazing.

[HH-R]

I couldn't care less either way, but wouldn't give the DVLA any more money than is already forcibly extracted. I'd probably have one if they were free.

 

I would have thought private plates on prestige German tin would have been right up the street of Pistonheads?

One of the plus points about personalised reg plates is that when someone drives like a twat and cuts you up etc, it's much easier to remember their number.

I went to school with someone called Austin Healey, he trained all his life throwing a ball about and colliding into other men and played rugby for England and when he got old and fat he then later became a very short lived Z list celebrity twat complete with shiny cheap suits and massive tie knots appearing on awful Saturday evening TV with his friend and equal talent void black hole Lawrence Delallio. I heard he was a twat in school! Don't get a private plate people!

It's coded messages from the pentaverate.

[John F]

It's coded messages from the pentaverate.

 

Absolutely. It's telling you to buy two Maserati 222s.

 

Or the cars you saw are owned by 2/3rds of the Beast.

[DodgyBastard]

I just don't get why people get private plates to "hide the age of the car"

[HMC]

^I remember Quentin Willson always going on about that in TG magazine in the 90s. Whatever ageing barge he was talking about he would always seem to recommend a set. If thats your motivation for buying one it does seem you care a lot about what people think. Tbh im a pre 2001 number plate geek but I find the new style plates confusing to date. Must try harder.

[oldcars]

I'm not fussed about them, i wouldn't have one because of the cost involved, and the fee for swapping it about when you change car.

I met him once. He seemed to be quite up himself.

Trust greasy cunt Quentin to drivel on about personalised plates. I've always considered them a mark of Satan.

They probably belong to a secret organisation with a sinister plot to take over the world..........

 

Or it's just a co-incidence.

For similar reasons their orange hued missus looks like a reanimated Joan Rivers.

Are you sure it's not telling you to buy four DAF 44s? - One for each Horseman? - That's the problem with coded messages - it is so easy to buy the wrong thing, then you could be in all sorts of trouble.

 

Or it could be 33% owned by the beast - or as it is known on Earth, "Wagon Finance".

NI plates (outside of NI) get on my nerves the most.

Yes, but it's about wankers in prestige* cars with mis-spaced numbers. So HE10 UOK becomes HELO U OK and shit like that - that seriously boils my piss as well. If I were a traffic cop I'd be pulling over and fining these wankers as well.
