shouldn't that be a chav plate with the badge...?

It's more acceptable than a Playboy bunny or other chavvy badges.

On the wrong car but saw 456 F on a Bentley in Oakham yesterday. Looked great. Would have looked superb on a 456.

E17 POP on a Mansory Continental GT. Didn't get to see the driver. Maybe of 90s boy band East 17 fame?

RUS 1 on a Merc GL.
2 EVA on a Honda Jazz.

[Shnozz]

No Pic but also spotted ARN 135 on an X5 - not amazing but great for Arnie

[Sir Bagalot]

1 LM on a black Golf. Was a £15K + fees plate 19 years ago

Yes, yes, I know it should be DAI TAFF but it's spaced correctly and everything and DAI TAFF isn't possible so, on balance, I reckon it's okay.

I'm afraid it's not spaced correctly ... that's way more than 33 mm

Just a thought about the good plate / bad plate "discussion"...

I think a good plate can be badly displayed, so I think this plate would be good, no matter the font, spacing, plate shape, or whether it has a BS marking in the bottom right and the plate manufacturer's name and post code.

White 5 series estate in Uttoxeter at the weekend:

1 U - How much must this have cost

Lives local to Stafford, nice bloke - from my understanding it's one of those 'been in the family for generations' type plates. well into £100k+ I'm guessing...

I didn't know M4 RYS was local to Nottinghamshire. M44 RYS is local to Grantham.

Yes, North Notts, not quite your vicinity. I used to see ROB 4 almost daily here but I don't think it was particularly local. You seen that one?

M4 RYS apparently sold for £6400 in 1998, £20k perhaps these days?

I used to see M4 RYS in Loughborough quite a lot. Not so much recently. Picture from when I saw it last year...

LUF 1 at Toby Carvery in Loughborough yesterday.

Spotted in Walton gardens yesterday, I assume its the local Mayor or something with the coat of arms cable tied to the front grille:

Sorry about the pic. S4 FFA. Correctly spaced.

Pretty sure that used to be on a McLaren SLR in East London a few years back.

ELL1E on the M1 this morning near J19. 35k + fees back in April 1991. I'm sure you could buy a very nice house at the time for that much. Wonder what its worth now? single single territory?

Please exucse all the dead things on my windscreen. Will get it washed soon I promise 'Officer'

Nice plate.

Personal opinion, but I wouldn't think its worth a great deal more than what they paid.

Given the fact it is an overfinch range rover evoque I doubt they need a bigger house. Probably needed a tax write off in 91.

[Hatson]

Lucky owner.

I mean, possibly 23yrs with no fine or confiscation. Great plate nonetheless.
