Pretty cheap actually. Starting price was 130, sold for 200 + buyer fee, vat and assignment.

I used to own V8 VTG but sold it on long before I got my V8V.

Anyone on here got it now ?

I would guess it must be a DB7 or Virage, for that era.

Oh I don't know, I'd have bid if I didn't already have an equally convoluted reg.

And compared to the £76k plus fees someone paid for GOB 1G I'd say it was good value

When I first saw your post I thought “Who wants ‘GOB’ on their car?” Then I realised

When a private reg has to be explained or its so ambiguous that it doesn't make sense at first glance, it isn't worth doing at any price.

My Vantage came with a private plate, I wouldn't have bothered going to find one had it not done so.

I knew Miss Ellie... A Manchester woman that owned Miss Ellie's World Travel. A very successful woman who paid approx. £30k for ELL1E. That was back in the 90's....I thought she was mad.
