Up in the estimation...

[LayZ]

wtf 2 million people are interested in what Lily Allen has to say? She seems nice enough but 2 million!?

[Podie]

With a bit of luck it'll ruin residuals and make them affordable.

[Hairspray]

Crikey, I'm impressed if it is actually her!

[martin vr6]

Hmmm I'm not so sure she would post up pictures of her car with the plate visible.

I thought she threw her toys put of the pram a few months ago about Twitter and gave it up.

Hey if you are going to sell drugs to kids (1) you need a quick get away car... (2)












(1) in her younger days
(2) allegedly

[Welshwonder]

Says it all about the car, IMO!

[TheEnd]

And Fatboy Corden was snapped looking at a Porsche in the papers today too

[khevolution]

also on the same twitter feed she's posted a Video of Paul Swift doing a J-Turn

To be honest, any girl driving a Focus RS would get my, erm, vote Love the cars, and there's just something so right about gals driving hot hatches

Quite a lot of cash says it's not 'hers' but a car provided FoC by Ford for her use. 'A' plates usually mean Ford fleet car, and I'm pretty sure that firstly she lives in London and secondly, she's not the kind of person to head out to East Anglia to save £200 on her new car

I assume that it was a Cayenne or Panamera.

The lardy bugger wouldn't fit in any of the others.

Actually I now have an amusing image in my head of him trying to extract his copious self from a roll cage-equipped GT3...

My friends Mum has AD55 on her Galaxy, it was neither a Ford Fleet car, nor did they buy it from East Anglia, ex-demo from Chichester, West Sussex, don't understand why it's on AD and not H* though...

My Mum's car was registered in Guildford, Surrey on KS57.

Aren't Fords usually E* anyway? - Quick flick through a handful of Top Gear and Evo magazines and there are a multitude of Kugas, Foci and Fiestas sporting EF, EO and EX.

My car is an Ex-Demo from Guildford, Surrey and is on an HK-plate, the motorbike dealer next door registered someone I knows scooter on RX and a Land Rover dealer about 2mi away registered my friends Mum's Freelander on LX

ETA: Mum's Peugeot was bought when it was almost 1, had been the local outlet of a large Peugeot dealer franchise Finance Directors company car since new, so maybe the plate was supplied from Peugeot HQ..?

AD is Peterborough. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vehicle_registration_...

Ford have some sort of centralised demo centre in st Neots so I suppose Peterborough is the nearest dvla office. Not sure what the function of the place is,maybe used for demos to fleet managers. My mondeo came from there first and had it's first service done there. It has an AD plate

The Focus RS press car I had a few months ago was an EK reg but most of the cars which come from Ford fleet are on A plates.

[khevolution]

I never knew anything about the first two letters on the new style number plates, to be honest never really thought about it, interesting stuff to know either way

The Galaxy will have been originally registered by Ford rather than the dealer, hence the A plate. Guildford is on the 'crossroads' of several areas so different dealers will register in different DVLA offices, hence the H, R and L plates. My Astra is ex Vauxhall fleet so registered KC57 xxx like all the other fleet ones, I think all Citroen fleet cars are K reg too (my Mum's one is), BMW are all Y reg'd (import centre in Doncaster) etc etc.

True, I saw a girl in a mk5 R32 the other day, leather recaros and everything... drool

On topic. I really like Lily Allen, and if the car is hers then she's good taste in colours!

[oobster]

I see a woman driving a green RS every night on the M8 heading towards Glasgow - it has a private K plate on it.

My Focus (non RS) is an ex Ford employee's car and it's an EO reg.
