Illegal chavvery, yes.
But as I have posted many times before, we love to see, and laugh at, the vanity, low self esteem and insecurities of any driver with a personal plate, chav or otherwise.

You need your own plate .... KN08 EAD

W.A.S.P.

Spotted between Ash and Aldershot yesterday, on a PEUGEOT 206 'ALLURE' CC.

Seriously, 'Sue'? At your age...

a) you ought to bloody well know better,

and

b) there's no allure, I can assure you. Neither you, nor the car.

SO05 LOW on a black Maserati in Glasgow today. No prizes for guessing how it was spaced...

Nice car. Nasty plate.

Think the R should be B and U is an O ?
Would have thought as B15HOP it would be worth a few quid ?

Nope. The correct registration for that vehicle is R15 HUP. Toyota Hilux Invincible D-4D 4x4. White, 3.0l diesel, first registered October 2007. So safe to assume the VRN was deliberately chosen with the intent to misrepresent. Presumably B15HOP was not available, or out of their league.

Evidently the yellow screw caps were once black, to entirely misrepresent the plate, and at some point (possibly told by plod, or to scrape an MOT pass) the caps were swapped for yellow ones.

This, in my mind, is the very worst kind of misrepresentation, because if the driver leaves the scene of an accident, and is reported by witnesses as being 'Bishop', or even B15HOP, there is only a very remote chance that the Police could find it. It's also butchered sufficiently (especially with the 'shaved' characters) that I'll bet ANPR and speed cameras would be at a loss to identify it.

B15HOP returned no results on the site I use for checking registration plates. Perhaps that means it's still available from DVLA, or is currently on retention somewhere?

I'd say its the other way around, he's tried turning R15HUP into B15HOP with black cap bolts, but then been pulled up on it and replaced them with yellow ones.

I saw a white Audi A3 on the M3 yesterday with R19 HTP spaced as R19HT P.

Presumably the P stands for Penis.

[Kermit power]

I was behind an engineer's van a few days ago. It had a perfectly legally spaced number plate which read PN15 EAD.

No attempt by the driver to try and change it, and I assume it's just as issued by DVLA at random for the van when new, but surely he must come in for a lot of pisstaking when he turns up on site in a van called Penis Head?

The real " B15 HOP " sold in April 98 for £16500 + VAT Etc.. And I'm sure worth at least double + that today..!
