Lord Sterling Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 I saw MO04BAA on a farm trailer, PA55GSW on GSW school of motoring learner car and OOO 16. There used to be a Scirocco in Brentwood with a plate something like OIOIO or IOIOI, never worked out quite how they did that!Many years ago whilst in Digbeth, I spotted a Black Range Rover with '800' on its plate. I thought it couldn't just be a number (unless it was from Jersey/Guernsey) I did a bit of research when I got home and found it was '8 OO'. So I'd imagine the Scirocco you saw would have been OIO 10/IOI 10/10 IOI or something around that region. Whilst doing the research, I did strangely find some cars with just 3 numbers in thier plates. Royal/military cars or something? Thry weren't special cars, I remember one car being a Vauxhall Astra.

Amishtat Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 I saw HOV1S on a down at heel Silver Spirit near Basildon last week. Feel free to insert your own "must knead the dough" jokes, it's too early for me. Also someone round Chelmsford has 125P on a resale white Mercedes which I'd love to put on a smoky FSO with rust holes round the headlamps D Spares & Tyres 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

morrisoxide Posted May 28, 2018 Share Posted May 28, 2018 SUM 1 in Leeds last night on a new base Dacia duster. Steels with no trims.That plate used to live opposite me years ago. It was then on a Kia Magentis about 04 plate and before that a Hyundai Matrix I think. It did make me wonder what was going on. Also UM is a Leeds reg. bangernomics 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vulgalour Posted May 28, 2018 Share Posted May 28, 2018 One of our neighbours has SM06 BOX on their Audi. Only noticed it today when I was watering the garden, shall have to see if I can get a snapshot without looking too suspect in the process.

quicksilver Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 That plate used to live opposite me years ago. It was then on a Kia Magentis about 04 plate and before that a Hyundai Matrix I think. It did make me wonder what was going on. Also UM is a Leeds reg.At a guess it's one of those plates that's still in the family of the chap who had it issued new and they've used it on every car they've ever had. No doubt worth a fortune but also has massive sentimental value. CUB 1 was another good Leeds issue. Originally on a Samuel Ledgard coach and later owned by Cubby Broccoli, it featured on Truly Scrumptious's car in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy F Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 A bass player I used to gig with had BA55SES as his plate on his S class, looked amazing. As a trumpet player I always wanted BRA 5S after that.
