Great number plates - got any?

[BMC Dan]

B4 TDC on a silver Merc 4x4 and 2 EXP on a blue Triumph 2500S estate seen within the past few days.

[Angrydicky]

1 PAD seen today on a Merc.

[Rusty Pelican]

Saw a brand new Mini cabriolet in red with black stripes on it , didnt catch the whole plate but it ended in MUG

How fitting

[kinkersaab]

In Aberdeen yesterday I saw " R25 " now I have just the car for that plate.......

[Father Ted]

2 FRY on an S type Jag in Preston.

M100 POO (moo poo?) - Nissan pick up in Blackpool.

M5 POO on a BMW M5 of all things.

D1RTY on a BMW earlier

The owner of one of the local building companies lives up the road from me and predictably has a new Range Rover. The number is:

 

B1 ULD

 

He's a pretty good builder, just not so hot with the spelling...

[Mash]

Well no, but to me it perfectly illustrates the pointlessness of personal plates. There's a lot of clutching at straws going on.

[Angrydicky]

In the last couple of days I've seen:

 

CYL 8 on a Range Rover

 

KJN 1 on a giffer owned newish Fiesta. I get the impression the old boy's had the number on every car he's owned since his 1954 Austin A30 or Ford Pop it was originally on.

 

SSS5S - can't remember what this was on.

[Albert Ross]

I was forced to go through Manchester the other day. (Stockport-Oldham) and followed a Lanos with the reg.... wait for it....

 

L44NOS.

 

No pics as I was being followed by plod. Not because they wanted to stop me or owt.

[Pete-M]

I had a Sierra XR4x4 years ago with almost the perfect alternative plate for a Lanos. D434WOO.

 

(It almost says DAEWOO, if you squint a bit)

Saw a newish Land Rover of some description (Discovery?) with H8 NSL.

AC10 is also the offence code for failure to stop after an accident

paves the way for the likes of DR10 HIC and SP60 BYE I suppose

on a plumbers van DRA1N

 

probably made some poor twunt redundant so he could pay for it

Not a great number, but I saw II 611 on a VW yesterday; would that have been an Irish plate originally? Never seen 2 "I"s shoved together before, the opportunities for symmetry (II811) or a very narrow plate (II111) are interesting

[eddyramrod]

Are you sure that wasn't 11811, visiting from Guernsey? Over there they use numbers only, no letters, as Cyprus did until the 50s.

[STUNO]

Seen today while driving my bus and cameraless, TO55ER on a new looking Porsche cabrio.

That had me laughing out loud .

[Albert Ross]

Seen yesterday on a modern Eurobox. DU11VWS. Which sums up my thoughts on them totally. It certainly wasn't a VAG product, but might have been a Corsa. (I was slightly pissed)

There appeared to be a "gap" between the "II" and the "611", but I was past him fairly quickly. Never thought about the Channel Is. you may have solved it for me!

If you are lucky enough to have a Jaguar XK 150S then you just can't beat this:

(It's really 15 OS, but who's going to split hairs )

Shame this isn't still in circulation anymore as it would have been worth a fortune, I used to see 008 a lot in Colchester on a BMW M3 years ago.

[eddyramrod]

005 no longer in circulation? Quick, call in 007 and send him to investigate...

[trigger]

Whilst dressed as a clown?

[Albert Ross]

I used to use a set of trade plates, 007EE. They belonged to a good friend of mine, a part time car dealer in his lates 80s. Always got me pulled over though. Perhaps I looked like a rogue.

[Volksy]

I saw U3 on a RAV4 yesterday, I guess certainly more than the car's worth.

[Angrydicky]
