What crappy personalised plates have you seen recently?

But that doesn't actually represent genuine prestige at all - that just represents is an availability of a substantial amount of money and a desire to publicly flaunt that availability which is an completely different thing alltogether.
Given the very negative influence any significant excess of money seems to have most peoples attitude and behaviour towards others here in the Essex Badlands I'm really delighted to confirm that I'm a peasant too...
Trouble is Steve, it's a blurred line now.Given the very negative influence any significant excess of money seems to have most peoples attitude and behaviour towards others here in the Essex Badlands I'm really delighted to confirm that I'm a peasant too...
My lottery win? A really mint pre HE XJ-S* with a £50'000 numher plate. (Who owns ST1 ? ) That would have these chumps scratching their arse through their Louis Vuitton underpants in puzzlement. Or a seventies Toyota Crown Coupe - they just wouldn't understand.
- note the hyphen.

Illegal Chavplate. Loadsamoney - though probably Ocean Finances or Wongas and not the Platees. Almost certainly on an equally financed to the max stone rashed Teutonic Uberwagon or heavilly blinged up 4x4 with two bald tyres. It'll be parked outside a shabby Essex commuter town semi detached on some god awful estate with concrete cast lions or eagles on the gateposts and a burnt out jet ski in the overgrown front garden.
Real Good plate with a hint of prestige. Carefully bought with the Platees own funds. Will of course be legal and most likley stuck on something quite interesting or unusual that may be worth perhaps just a few or maybe several tens of thousands of pounds but it won't be too ostentatious and whatever the Platees weapon of choice is it'll be very well looked after and owned outright too.
Real Good plate with spades of prestige. Inherited. Nothing so vulgar as money has changed hands to acquire it as it's been in the family since the dawn of motoring when only the very wealthy could afford a car. No need to prove anything to anybody so it'll almost certainly be on older Luxobarge or perhaps a battered Land Rover that's probably been inherited too.
Me? Never bought a Lottery ticket in my life - but if I did and if I won a big one I'd probably keep very quiet indeed about it.

Whilst it may have been expensive when new, I don't think a so-called big time drug dealer tooling around in a £2k Volvo is in a position to laugh at anyone.Gassing Station | General Gassing | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
