Not sure about this one. It looks good, and it isn't massively mutilated, yet it's incorrectly spaced so not really deserving of this thread? I've covered my bases, and uploaded it to the "C124PPY Plates" thread as well...


Not absolutely brilliant, but it sits nice on a cleaning company van.


Not sure how 'real good' this actually is, vanity/personal plates are not my thing really. But the double/double format plates do look nice on a car, and are growing on me. Maybe I actually am mellowing with age?


My favourite recent spot! This made me actually laugh out loud as I walked past outside one of the hotels up on the West Cliff behind the BIC in Bournemouth.

I saw what I thought was a good plate B1 JOU. It was on a quite large vehicle (Evoque) and the irony was not lost on me.

When I got closer I was very disappointed to see a black screw in the middle of a D

Why do people do this? My first assumption is that you can't afford the real thing and it just makes you look a dick.

I suppose the upside is that the owner of a white Touareg gets all your speeding tickets.

You must be! I love these, especially the original rare ones like this. 1904, Dundee.

Woah, pop your handbag down fella. I was merely suggesting that they're reasonable plates.

Not sure if I have shared this one before.

Your post makes sense with the pics, before it was just a list.

Some good spots, 1V looks great!

I quite like the idea of plates that resemble Roman numerals..

I'm assuming the owner is a redhead.

I used to see G1 NGE on the way to work regularly. It was predictably missing the space, but it used to make me smile. Until I got close enough to it to see it was actually G1 NCE and a bolt. Sigh.

I saw one today that really sucks...

Almost got a photo but he drove off before I could get my phone out to take a pic.

Does his first name really begin with a "U"

I don't suppose you have a pic of 1 JW do you Ben? IIRC, that used to be owned by John Watson.
