Great number plates - got any?

[maxpower]

today i saw a renner mpv thingy with PLJ 180 being followed by her daughter i guess in another renner with PJ 18... think the plates are worth more than the cars

[gadgetgricey]

Whilst away in Hunstanton on holiday saw a Pug 309 with reg EDJ1T at a car boot sale.

'1100 R' is currently for sale on Ebay -which would suit one of my Fiat 1100 r's rather well

 

£5,000

 

Oh well

I saw '8OO' on a Black Range Rover Sport thingy a couple of weeks back, at first I thought it was '800' so when enquiring about it on the RAC I got this:

 

Plate: 800

Make: FORD

Year of manufacture: n/a

Model: GALAXY (CD 340)

Engine size(CC): n/a

 

I enquired a few more 8xx plates through the RAC, most cars seem to come back as above with the strange little numbers next to the model bit and no year of manufacturer or engine size like this other one:

 

Plate: 825

Make: AUDI

Year of manufacture:

Model: A6 (PI C5)

Engine size(CC):

 

They dont show up on the DVLA, anyone know what they are all about?

[Volksy]

Guernsey registration possibly?

[Lord Sterling]

Possibly, didnt think that. I was thinking more along the lines of Royal Family vehicles etc.....

This has belonged to Peter De Savary at some time.... I used to drive the blue Roller it was on.

In London one time I saw a blacked out black Rangie come barreling out from Buck House with the registration 2P. More recently, I saw a new shape Rangie go into The Palace with NO numberplates. I think we all know who was in that car!

[eddyramrod]

Ah!, i was doing 005 not OO5!

 

005 wouldn't be issued in UK as DVLA doesn't use "leading zeros" as Cyprus does. So that'll be OO 5, which is an Essex combination. My Granada should really be GF 008, but I prefer it with just the 8, I'm not keen on carrying the zeros. One day I may get stopped for it, but until then...

My favourite local bakers van.

 

 

Always makes me smile.

I saw a Volvo XC90 with "XCZ 90" today - looked excellent!

[tonedepear]

I literally saw with my actual eyes a bentley on my lunch today, reg was PU 51 EEE. (I think. It was definitely PU51 EE# or E#E or #EE if not).

 

I very nearly crashed. He didn't look like a complete trolling cunt, which was a mild surprise.

[Father Ted]

Saw SMA 44SH on Polish plates. wasnt quick enough with the camera.

[Albert Ross]

I was lost in Leeds tonight, due to roadworks, and was overtaken by an Ice-Cream van... reg W111PPY. With a dot between the first two 1s. Quite chortlesome....

[Angrydicky]

In a similar vein, I saw a 'Rossis' ice cream van yesterday that had the registration ROS 55L (with a screw at the bottom of the 'L', making it look like 'I.')

[R9UKE]

Our local ice cream van has P99 OKE!

I saw these two last week in Padstow.

BC8 I expected was worth a bit of coin.

This PAD 50W plate was great being in Padstow and all that.

I used to drive through a mature private housing estate on Lapal Lane near Halesowen. I once passed a car owned by an old giffer who looked as if he'd lived there for ages, nice gardens, tiday driveway etc... on his driveway was then a mk3 Ford Mondeo with 'L4PAL' for its numberplate, it think the plate is now mounted on a 10' Toyota Prius.

[Rusty Pelican]

Our local Ice cream man has MRW 1P , ( Mr Wip"py" I guess )

[Angrydicky]

Spotted V12GYN and J11LJE this morning, both with totally illegally spaced plates to read "VIRGYN" and "JULIE" respectively. Not so much great, but utterly shite! I love living in Essex

[kinkersaab]

I have been meaning to post this for a while, no pic, but the local RBS mobile bank, has "1 RBS" on a transit. A quick google reveals they paid £3400 for it in 1993.

[flat4alfa]

[R9UKE]

Unfortunate initials.

[DSdriver]

They've had that plate for years now, just move it onto newer vans.

[DSdriver]

UPU 20K now on a Disco but when I saw it on a Aston in the Blackwall Tunnel it was spaced UP U 2 OK

[CreepingJesus]

I got '1600GT' after a few false starts - it's screwed onto a Rover 75, and the pic was in my spot thread. Must be worth a bob or two to the right person? I.E., someone with an Alfa/Lancia/Ford and more money than sense!

Still to get, is a silver Rangie with 'LE55 XXX' on its' plate. Now, I wondered; is this an anti-porn campaigner, or someone who made enough money selling cut-price porn, to buy the car and the plate? One wonders...

[gricer]

I saw one that raised a smile today.

 

M8 0MFG on a black Astra (current model)

F4 RTA - on a modern white van in Wokingham. Next time I'll have a camera...

Another one from my London pics:

 

 

Ive got a pic somewhere of a new Black Range Rover sport with something like 'O8' as a plate too.
