G 0 now lives in a museum in Glasgow that I've forgotten the name of.  I highly recommend it, by the way.  (See background chod for teaser.)

If  that  was my house at least one of those bastards would  have fallen on that Phantom bonnet by now....

I was behind this in traffic in town the other day, I'd hazard a guess on it being worth slightly* more than the manky K11 it was on!

I'm pretty sure I saw a plate that was four numbers and a U the other day on a Suzuki Ignis - is that just old? Seems odd to me.

This appeared a while ago..... Needs mentioning again!

There is JB 007. It's on a silver Aston Martin DB5. It's true, because I've seen it on the telly.

An old boss of mine had OO7 on his car and apparently he was always being contacted by film company people to sell it,the fact he could probably have bought Pinewood ,Eon Productions and paid Cubby Broccoli to wash his car meant he never sold it. He died some years ago but I think the family still own it , it was on a tatty old Spirit worth about £5,000 last time I saw it.

OO7 is now on a 1987 White Rolls Royce that is still taxed until 2015.

I've just seen ELL 1S on a Merc which looked pretty good.

Reminded me of this which I remember seeing on a Merc on BBC1 Childrens TV in 1986:

Imaginary internet points for anyone who gets the TV programme.

See OO7 quite often in Chelsea. Looks pretty tatty and the white colour doesn't help.

Sounds like it still belongs to his widow or his dodgy playboy grandson ,who hasn't wasted his inheritance on new cars. According to the papers he's been too busy shagging Claudia Schiffer,Elle Macpherson and both Minogues,although he's now married to another model 20 years his junior.

Thought I'd already mentioned, my (Italian) friend's dad owns a restaurant in Hale or Altrincham, and he has PAS7A on his 6-series (modern).

Also there's an office furniture place I pass every day called G. Armstrong, that has at least four or five plates that are 'xx GA', on an Escort van, a Merc Atego truck, a Hilux and an E or S-Class, and a VW LT Luton (the Sprinter kind).

Where I work, up until a few months ago, we had a couple of rug-munchers come in for "servicing" with an Astra, reg V61NAL.... I often thought it should have been V461NAL. They traded it in for summat modern, and the Astra disappeared to auction.

Also, I nearly bought a Granada L54GNE,  again I thought it would have been better as L454GNE.

The last motor/home I had before I set off travelling.

Not a great reg but certainly apt as it was SCARY to drive, due to major knackeredness.

Saw AU55OME on a local Aston. No gaps. DB9 according to askMID, I don't know my Astons all that well.

Posted

AVE 1T is on a DB9 in Didsbury somewhere.

 

Think this now lives on a C63 AMG. I'm guessing it belongs to a landlord, because the houses its usually parked outside of round my way are not the sort where that kind of money lives...

I've just seen 1BCN on a Mk2 Mondeo LX, the car couldn't be worth anymore than £500.
