You would be in such a mood too, if you had a badge on your car that said Fix It Again Tomorrow,

Are all the EN plates owned by the same person, do you know?
14 N was posted on here a while back. Honda Jazz in some supermarket carpark up in Scotland if memory serves me right. Cousin to the infamous 1 AN on the Moggy.
13 N and 7 EN were parked on the same residents permit only street less than 30m apart so I'd say theres a good chance they could be owned by the same person. (but this was in Whitby not Scotland so probably not the same people as 14 N)

The two astons were just on the A1 on the way up so i don't think the 13 ENN plate is related, saw quite a few astons on the A1/A19 so I'm assuming there was some owners club thing going on up Thirsk way.

Don't know if already mentioned/spotted, but saw ONE 23 today on a black Range Rover in the backwaters of Cumbria. Very catching of the eye! cool
I spotted it in Keswick about a month or so ago, posted the pic here. Cracking plate.

Another one of value that seems strange to be sat on an old Audi with an MOT that expired 8 years ago. Guess it was never intended to rot or you'd get the plate on retention quick before it became pricy to recondition it for an MOT just to extract the plate.

Bonkers that it is still on the car. It must be worth a decent wedge?!

I may be wrong, but I don't think that rule applies any more...

"While the car you're taking the private plate from doesn't need to have an MOT, it must be able to move under its own power, and must have been taxed or been SORN'd for the last five years. The DVLA may also need to inspect your car before approving or turning down your application"
