nice, but 15k is a lot for a plate

It annoys me when sellers put stuff like "THE ULTIMATE" in their ads - surely even they must know that the ultimate would be L4, not L6MBO.....

i once enquired on a POA plate, 51 MON ,and was told it was £125,000. i politely declined to proceed further.

That crazy money. I was lucky I bought L999 LSV for the 99 Diablo SV for £380. Can't get much better than that for the money

Not really worth 1500 quid is it nevermind 15000.

Exactly, that's the same as saying Lamborghini is actually spelt Lgmborghini.

[andysv]

looks like LUMBO/LOMBO?

Wouldn't the ultimate Lamborghini plate be M1URA?

OK, so you couldn't actually put it on one, but it would still be great to have it. According to the RAC website it's currently on a 1998 Peugeot 406 LX.... Clearly a case of the plate being worth more than the car!

Great number plate, but unless you're putting it on a replica how could you use it ? (1994 M onwards ?)

[Wazza]

I know the whereabouts of "L13MBO" which I believe might be for sale. When the numbers 1 & 3 are squared off, they look very close to the letter A.

Not exactly legal but the guy has been driving around for three years with no trouble.

i have the plate L8M SV.. I want £500 for it.. £15000 is crazy for any plate i think.. If anyone is after a plate for there SV it looks real good...

Oh, I dunno.... [Bias accepted] I reckon this takes some beating. After all, it applies to ALL proper Lamborghinis.

those wipers dont look to clever!

I think it is always better to leave the tacky plates to the ladies/hairdressers in the Mercedes slk's . They can compare "while lunching"

Nice to see the Espada again Phil.
Incidently, it is amazing how many people have had to ask the significance of the plate, since we put it on my website.
For all those non petrolheads, 12 POT equals 12 cylinders.
Great number. Great car.

I'll second that having seen the car in the flesh.

Top motor Phil, i'll never forget that flyby you did.

I'm sure I don't know what you mean, Phil!

My Gallardo has 12 cylinders. Just that 2 of them are for the brakes!

You new age types.

thought I'd just mention that there IS a chap who owns both a Miura and also the reg. no. M1 URA

No names, no drill obviously, but he was a member of LCUK at one time and I'm sure that he still has that plate on his hackabout which may still have the words, "My other car really is a Miura", like he had many years ago…

Phil: I still have the version of that pic of your Espada which was 'amended' for passing helicopter reference, just don't know how to post images on PH - yet!!
