You see, when I see that sort of bodge on a nice vehiicle, like most people, my genuine reaction changes from:

Nice car, I bet the owner is a true Petrol Head,

to

'Oh Dear God, what a waste of a good car'.

These plates are a bit like designer gear from TK Maxx arent they ?
More like knock off gear from a Turkish market.

Genuine Timmy Hilfogger Polo Shirts, cheaper than Ebay!! laugh
Yep, nail on head. It's faking it.

Aspiring to pretend you have something Real Good when it's very obvious you haven't. That's not just about a number plate or any other fake status symbols - if any of that stuff interests you - it's about a whole pretentious and fake lifestyle and attitude that makes you pretend you've got it which stems from nothing more than a unconstrained desire to impress others in order to make you feel better about yourself.

Risible.

I dont know if its about feeling better about oneself. It is certainly attention seeking at some level.

The bit that really puzzles me is the £100k+ cars wearing crappy plates. If you have the money to buy the car (or even just lease it) you must have a couple of £ to rub together. I really am stumped why someone would drive around in a wrath with a crappy plate. You can always find something reasonable for a few £ to put on a car. Even the original would be way better.

A couple from Fast Ford mag this month - a Mk3 FRS belonging to Sean & an EsCos owner called Jay with another unfortunate attempt for a "Cossie" plate that, as usual, ends up with a "Cosy" style plate instead laugh

A pro po to nothing, whilst in Egypt over Christmas the evenings were somewhat cooler than expected so I went to one of the markets to buy a hoody or a jumper. All branded stuff everywhere (the Russians LOVE their brands....) One I piked out seemed ok, worked out at around £7.50, ok, quality wasn't great but wasn't really bothered. As soon as I took it off the rack the shopkeeper came over and was saying how good it was. Trying to convince me it's genuine. FFS, just admit it's a knock off and I'll buy it. No. Wouldn't admit it. So went elsewhere. Yeah, I know. Cool story bro huh?

The spacing on the plate made me wonder if it was also misbadged. Turns out it has the big V8 so some PH points retained.

Parking across two bays is OK by me if the car park has plenty of spaces closer to the store. All the others nono
