I spotted FROSTIE (FR05 TLE I think) on a modern Beemer earlier.

There is NAG 2 L that scoots about these parts. Use to be on an old tractor.

[jnoiles]

Years ago a mate had CUN-084 on his plate. 084 being the decimal ascii code for the letter T. Geek humour.

[Shep Shepherd]

I used to regularly see a Volvo 240 GLT saloon about fifteen years ago in the village of Ash in Kent with the registration 241 GLT

Tayne, do you have any connection with the Mansfield area?

Spotted whilst waiting for my ma to arrive with a wheelbrace, a big ugly Kia or similar soft-roader with ON07 ANE arranged as "O NO TANE"

I was behind a W8 Passat today that had the number W8 8CYL. More to be pitied than scorned.

[Albert Ross]

Saw an Iveco recovery truck today with a dead Qashqai on it, quite mangled TBH. Truck reg was R1TOF. Clever..

[Gompo]

Cant decide if I like it or not, but saw 6060GO yesterday.

 

Would suit some cars, but not the diesel CLS it was on.

[myglaren]

I saw one on that way back from Newcastle the other day that was a complete knockout.

Naturally, by t he time I got home I dad completely forgotten what it was

 

Just spotted an unbadged BMW Tourer X314LAX. How shit is that

I always liked p16sty on a BMW near where I used to live

[Guest]

Actually p19sty makes more sense

[Justin Case]

I was following a Focus RS370 (a new one on me ) BA 51 ARD this afternoon. Not sure if it referred to the car or the driver

[pogweasel]

RS370 appears to be a conversion by graham goode, for chavs with more money than sense and a burning ambition to crash a dayglo car into a tree...

What a WINNAH!!!

[Pillock]

Is there any way, any way at all you can get a numberplate with three letters, two digits, two letters?

 

I can't remember the actual digits now (doh!) but I saw a new Aston on the motorway with that config... xxx57xx

(not actualy x's, but they mark the places for letters). It was laid out to read someone's name but I really can't figure out how they got three letters before the numbers not after. Foreign? Forces? Just plain false registration?

[Angrydicky]

I'm guessing it was actually a 55 plate and the "7" was actually a "T".

 

Certainly illegal plates anyway.

It was black-on-silver and the plates were actually using the old font, definately a 7 not a T. It went right by me, I got a really good look at it and tried to give chase to see the front, but.... well..... Aston vs 1.4 Corsa

Also, the three letters at the front were definitely not letters that could have been numbers such as S.

 

It was something like CRU57ON

[Angrydicky]

Are you sure it wasn't an old suffix registration like CRU 570N?

[Pillock]

Are you sure it wasn't an old suffix registration like CRU 570N?

 

I'm sure the first letter of the second group was an O, so yeah..... 0 is possible.

I think it was the 57 (or it may have been 59) that threw me, seeing so many other 57s on plates. But quite why I assumed it was some dirty trick and not just a N-suffix plate is anyone's guess. The spacing, with no gaps, didn't help.

 

Nothing to see here, move on!

[CreepingJesus]

There's a Porker 911 knocks about Dunfermline, with the reg EWD 1C. Spaced to read EW D1C. I'm never sure whether to be amused or appalled by it - it's hard to know whether to rise to the bait-plate or not. Depends on the day/mood I s'pose. I'll make my mind up when I get my Lotus Carlton...

Spotted A1RXL on a Rover 600:

Saw HAG 1 on a big BMW today. GR8 4 MOTHER IN LAWS
