Yes, it is my RR. Funded by selling my Discovery and the imminent sale of my steam engine. Costs less to run than the diesel Disco due to LPG being 50ppl where I fill up, and at £900 compared to the £600pa for the Disco is not that much more to insure either.
Still, haters gonna hate I suppose
No Matt, you bring it on yourself. You've been here for four and a half years and yet you still haven't figured out how to not get the piss taken out of you. Dicky posted something pretty accurate, if a little out of character, and instead of reacting with good humour you just dived right in and lashed out. who can never have anything nice to say, as usual Yes, it is my RR.

Oh, and I'm not 'hating'. I really, truly couldn't care how you got that car, fair play for affording it yourself. You need to relax a bit more, your blood pressure must be sky high. Have you ever tried taking a deep breath and counting to ten before deciding if something is worth getting worked up about or not? I recommend it.

And fronters gonna front.
Are you accusing me of insurance fraud/passing off someone else's car as mine? You can fk right off with that one.That is MY car, registered in MY name and insured in MY name, and I have the paperwork to prove it
Plus the over emphasis of the word MY tends to suggest that there is some grains of a lie in amongst that statement. You know, it's the old thinking of the people who deny something the most are usually guilty.
Like the people that are massively homophobic and feel the need to tell everyone are usually the people that in their private life think dicks are delicious.
Do you think dicks are delicious CC?

Fronting is also used in the manner of a person portraying an image which is not true. In this case, your constant attempts to appear wealthy/cultured/intelligent in between the childish temper tantrums. An 02 RR is a nice car, attempting to hide the age so that people think you have more money than you do is such a vulgar thing to do, shows zero class or taste and actually has the opposite effect you desire.

Cheap Northern Irish plates look daft. The 3-letter, 1-number example given earlier isn't bad, but something generic like SUI 1234 or BAZ/MAZ/DAZ/etz plates look what they are - a cheap nasty plate.
CC, If you want to hide the age and not look quite so find a UK 3-letter, 3-number plate. Looks much better, maybe even try and find one with your local area code on it (i.e CNT 322 is an old Shrewsbury-issued plate, so ideal for someone from Shropshire).
And for fk sakes get a sense of humour - it really will help in the long run.

This. Try to consider how something you post today might appear to you in five years' time. This is because, how it will appear to you in five years' time is how it appears to many of your readers now.DottyMR2 said:

In my opinion private reg plates nearly always look completely naff. They usually scream attention seeking, or trying to look like something you're not. Those who say "they're a bit of fun"....well, I'll be avoiding your parties lol (yeah yeah, I'm not invited 
). Not trying to offend anyone, maybe I'm wrong like.
Suppose I can kind of understand the hiding the age angle - if you're off for an important make or break business meeting on the first rungs of what could be a very successful ladder. Maybe in those circumstances, the plate could just score you a few bonus points.
I honestly can't see any other reason to hide the age of your car otherwise though - honestly who cares what strangers/the neighbours think?

I don't know who 'Chemical Chaos' is, but the way some of you guys are behaving towards him is like a pack of feral dogs. Its not nice. Show some restraint please; we're adults, it's not a school playground.
What you're seeing is the easily led jumping on a passing bandwagon to bask in the collective coolness.FWIW, 5 of my cars have a personal plate in the pre-prefix format XN XXX where the last three letters are my initials. They do of course disguise the cars age but I like the commonality and simpler look.
What I would never do is try to spell a word, especially incorrectly. That looks really naff. There's a Rolls Royce with gold-played flying lady which used to knock around Hampstead, CLA 55. I don't think so.
