I've been taking 'lessons' on what constitutes a chav plate from a few of the members on here for a couple of days.
The more I get into it, the more I can read between the lines.
The more I read between the lines, the more it seems to me that number plate chavness - according to the rule book I've yet to see - has very little to do with misrepresentation and everything to do with value, pure and simple.
I'm really trying not to see it that way because there are several names for that sort of attitude and, well, I think most of us would rather be considered Chav .
If the website your profile links to is yours and you do sell plates, I'm sure you can see the inverse link between value and misrepresentation. That is to say:The more I get into it, the more I can read between the lines.

- Plates that actually look like they say something (and therefore don't need to be misrepresented) are the most valuable
- Plates that need to be misrepresented because they don't say anything are worth less
Along that vein, the website your profile links to actually suggesting ways in which plates could be misrepresented is also chav IMHO.
If the plate has BASU145d printed in the bottom right hand corner indicating it complies with the regulations, and there's been no attempt to missrepresent whatever registration it displays with strategically placed screw caps or bolts then its not Chav.
Anything else, no matter what the combination of letters, bolt heads and numbers are attempting to spell most certainly is very Chav indeed.
Incidentally, strikes me there's an awful lot of aspirational German metal on here that spectacularly fails my Chav test. Says it all really...

Have you had a look on the other threads? My word, it's embarrassing.
"Ooh! Look everyone I've just got SS11MNN! My name is Simon!"
Oh, I though it was Ssiimnn judging by the plate you've got.
absolutely!.. somebody (maybe you) has also mentioned that whilst the 11 plate release has created a lot of 'clever' word variations, it also means everybody's gonan need a brand new car to put them on.. Or have a lot of people forgotten you can't put 11 plate on older car?"Ooh! Look everyone I've just got SS11MNN! My name is Simon!"

There's still some great plates for sale that don't need any illegal spaces or coloured bolts in order to encrypt them...
eBay is throwing up some great ones. I like CL11 MAX. Perhaps I should have bought that to compliment mine, and then started a collection on the same lines
I'm not convinced WE11 SUE will make £100k though or AV11 LAN the £25k BIN price !

love this one too. I mean, just how bad is this (not on a car yet). Why stop at one bolt when you can have three!

My mate bought "SH11ZLE" today. I sent him this definition from the urban dictionary!
Urban dictionary says.. [i] Originated in medival England in the 17th century, this phrase has changed in meaning completely, from the orignal shorthand denotation of "Alas! An advasary has come upon us! To the catupults!" to the modern definition of "Please grease up my penis."
Old: Bartholomew, the dastardly barbains are attacking! Foe Shizle mine nizle!
New: bh step up! Fo shizzle my nizzle! [/i]

Today I saw J6 KKT on a Corsa, though the T was butchered to look like an I (in fact it looked more like a 1 from more than 5 yards away, definitely a T up close). Just in case it wasn't obvious to anyone, the car also sported a badge next to "CORSA" which read "JAKKI".
I was on my motorcycle, so was unable to photograph it.

"As i no longer have the mustang i feel it is only right that someone with one can experience the joys of having the perfect plate."
Pointing out the blindingly obvious but MUSTANC isnt it, is it now.
