I risk getting shot down by those that do not like registrations being discussed. But...

After seeing V10 on an Audi R8 V10 today I have been thinking we have some good ones!

I know that 1 P is in Scotland.

Know any others?

Ooooo, there's a few - an older Merc CLK in Aberdeen on 1 P (how much is that worth?) and a few years ago knocking about the 'deen was CL 10 (appropriately on a Clio) and 1 TV on a Rolls.

(Best plate. ever. that I've seen was OO 7 on a white Rolls in London)

In my opinion, personal registrations are acceptable if you maintain a degree of style (I'll say no more for fear of offending anyone).

I currently have "13 EK" (my birthday is the 13th of April).



I was quite proud of it until some bastid I worked with asked me what the significance of "BEK" was. mad

I know he reads this board so I expect a smart reply ... eh Chuckster? wink

"EK 1" is for sale at the moment and I'll be looking in to it this week. biggrin

Cheers,

Yup, both Alister's, not sure what he's doing with himself now.

Not seen 50 BER for a while, it was on a 350Z the last time i saw it.

My Godfather has D 13 on his Lexus, had it for years and years.

Years ago, at Glasgow Airport, I saw an Audi TT with T11F TT
There was a black number plate bolt between the bottom of the two 11's to form a U

A plumber's van had H2O _ _ _ The cute thing was the 2 was set lower, like the chemical formula.
