THE 805S on a Ford Fiesta - when I pointed it out to my brother in law an old boy poked his head out of the drivers window and said 'yeah but it's not me'!!!

Really nice chap he is, he got it free on an old car he bought 30 plus years ago!

Appropriate!
The Panamera shape has always put me slightly in mind of a modern version of the SD1

I thought the same thing!

Related to the 9999 debate last week, I saw SO 9999 on an A3 in northern Scotland, close to where the SO series were issued. It definitely stood out!

Saw this in Leigh this afternoon - not showing on AskMID though? (Wanted to look it up as I've got no idea what model it is)

Hurrican.

Isn't that Max Chiltons plate?

You need to look it up too! Huracan

what's special about kp 9999? Looks boring to me.

Yet you, the PistonHeads 'Real Good Number Plates : Vol 4' approval officer, didn't flag up H6 APY on the previous page?


Interesting...

No, I posted up O9 two pages previously. Which is, I think, real good. Who really thinks KP 9999 is real good? Looks like it belongs on a coach - you know when they try to disguise their age. In other words, not real good.

I know it's 'each to their own', but I personally LOVE KP 9999. First, it's an original - issued in 1929 by Kent. That makes it rare. Then like FunBus I am sure, I like the '9999', it is striking. If your initials are KP I think it's a great plate. I disagree with you that it does not belong on here, but I'm sorry, the other page??

Other thread >>>

Believe it or not I googled the plate and someone did already post it in the other thread a year ago and got the same response, so which is it? Personally I found it quite amusing.

I think it's more than possible for a plate to be suitable for neither thread! It's pretty much accepted that tastelessness does not in itself qualify a plate for the other thread - needs a degree of bodgery to be chav enough for inclusion - and I definitely agree not Real Good. New thread anyone 'number plates that make you look a dick but are completely legal'?

TH15 ROX on an M5 yesterday. As it was spaced correctly and in a std font I thought it qualified for this thread rather than the 'other' one

Probably a balding gent in his 50's with a stammer, hence the Mother I I like...
More than happy to be proved wrong

Reminds me of my old bank manager's plate: H1 MLF...

Someone riddle me this...

DVLA will never allow a plate with GOD or any derivation but my neighbour has ALA on his. Aren't they the same geezer?!
