I think that’s a really crap number plate on that.
IMO, no,classic car should have a personalised plate. The original number is part of the cars history - and that’s coming from someone who’s had 2;model specific plates on modern cats
I really can’t imagine my 69 Cougar looking better with anything better than a standard plate.

You register your cats?

Only the ones he does unspeakable things with!

Sticking with the plates theme:-
My old MG RV8 with a 4.6 litre engine

I thought I would add mine to the "plates" debate - I like it, and that's he important thing.

On the number plate themes, some one posted this on the Really Good Number Plates thread a few days ago:

That's better than this, also from teh Really Good Thread.

Cheating a little as these were in a parade. But stumbled upon it and didn't expect to see any of these beauts.
Classic alfas, a TZ2, 6C 3000, and I believe a tipo P3? (Now have been corrected, it's a 8C Monza)

Brightened up a rainy NYC, and the noise when they opened them up was incredible.

All you have to do is ask : ) In my experience Bristol owners are usually quite happy to chat if you go and talk to them.

Nice old Bug in London this morning. Indicators look a bit aftermarket.

[Dr Interceptor]

They are original VW 'bullet' indicators, available as a retrofit on cars 1955-1957 to supplement the semaphores.

The 1958 cars had the top wing mounted indicators, and semaphores were phased out in 1959.

This is a 1965 car, probably just had them retrofitted for a period look when the wings were replaced at some point during its life.

A7 Ruby spotted in Nantwich on Saturday, it belongs to a local acquaintance and is used regularly throughout the week

While on Sunday, down at Sleap airfield, a few TRs and a lone E-Type made an appearance ...

Three spotted while walking around Hampstead.







None is particularly special but it is good to see them in regular use.
