CFH - those are funny! I am still waiting to see a RR and a Freelander next to each other with "His XXX" and "Hers XXX."
Peter Alliss has PUT 3 or 3 PUT which given that was the reason he packed in as a pro shows some humour.
CUR 10 for an antiques dealer when I was a kid was not bad.
But cant see the point personally especially given the cost - a bit like a tatoo, dont you get tired of them after a while?
Think Moo Cows is MO0 6OWS
Edit - checked facebook, it's MOO 6OWS
Cant remember what 2 low 4 you was
2 LOW 4 U - would that work?
Many, many moons ago I was passed on the M4 by a car with the plate POR 928S. Ordinarily nothing distinctive except it was on a Porsche 928S.
And the second car I owned came with the number plate FAR 800T which I quite liked at the time. One way of reading it is with a Scottish accent. The other way was, apparently, more appropriate for me. 😯
vegtable wholesaler having POT80 on his Roller
VEG1 and VEG2 (retired family grocers) live around the corner from us. Nice cars but not ostentatious. Nissans IIRC
There's also G1 XER on a black pickup (Suzuki fan?) and TF05 TER rearranged to spell T FOSTER
Ok, it could have been M115CLE with a black screw between the the bottom of the two 1's
That works.

So does that. We're getting it now!
2 LOW 4 U - would that work?
Nope, that still doesn't.
V14GRA used to be on a Yaris Verso a few years back, not seen it on the Rav4. DEV1L is on a Diablo in or around Doncaster. SPL1F, on a Range Rover is owned by a non-enobled furniture retailer round here too.
My number plate is PJ13 FCU.
Nice
[i]also heard of a vegtable wholesaler having POT80 on his Roller.[/i]
Were they selling some sort of leaf 'veg'?

I'm Scottish and I don't get it.
When I worked in france about 10 years ago a guy who owned a rubbish collection firm booked out the whole hotel and flew his friends out for his 40th Birthday. His wife gave him a number plate that she found for £25k for his ferrari. I can't remember how it was set out but it spelt TOXIC.
Was pretty cool. He also received a signed, used, schumacher helmet, and a nose cone from one of Schumachers cars with the bottom signed by the drivers and loads of mechanics etc.
Bastard had too much money.
We had to work our asses off that week, extra services, dinner service that didn't finish until 23.30, perform some ****ing kareoke for them, basically just be performing monkeys for whatever whim they had.
We received a 20 euro tip each.
Rich stay richer!
Saw a Corvette a few years back with TE51CLE
And there's a Civic I keep seeing with H8 MTV. I'm not a fan of it either but don't think I'd pay money to advertise the fact on my car...
Couple from Stafford used to own B008 and 800B, when they divorced they argued over ownership, so the judge gave them 1 each.
The kicker individually they were worth approx £2k each as a pair of 8008's they were worth 30-40k, and this was 15-20 years ago....
I've seen VA91 NAL near where I live in Manchester. Perhaps he/she is a gynecologist?
[i]Bastard had too much money.[/i]
And that was from a 'rubbish collection firm' image how much he could have made if they were any good.
I used to own WLB 88S.
Completely unique, was on a car of the correct age (love when someone buys a new car then sticks a 1970's index plate on), didn't cost me a penny, and just as 'personalised' and 'private' as any other plate.
Still, a fool and their money...
....guy who owned a rubbish collection firm
He was Tony Soprano, and I claim my $5
My car came with N5 RYA - the previous owner was called Ryan and he was fed up with it. I have registered it with one of those number plate agencies but they have put it up for £750 which is probably a bit much really. Might just stick it on eBay - anyone know how much it costs to go back to an age related plate?
Gaz
found this in California a few years ago. took me a long while to figure out.

Kinda the point of a number plate really.
My dad certainly mentioned the POT 80 plate yonks ago.
Didn't Fiona Richmond (ggogle it) have FU 2?
I assume an opera singer, seen H1GH C on a otherwise nondescript Ford Fiesta round Edinburgh, and my daughter's music teacher has again hatchback, BR4HMS which I think rather nice..
Just yesterday on the A36 - sat behind the most convoluted 'name' I'd seen so far:
J411MESG
Which, by contrived use of a mis-aligned black screw-cap and some (un)clever spacing, produced J41•1MES G. Or "JAMES G".
It was on the back of tricked-out shiny f off Range Rover, which, going by the vinyl stickers badly applied to his rear window, belonged to some hardwood flooring installer.
Classy. Real classy.
I own SYS513R, makes me happy.
Favourite one I ever saw was a Fiat 500 Esseesse with 'V1BES'.
It's not the best number plate ever, but there's often an autobiography edition rangey parked in Winchester Sainsburys with the number plate "17".
I'm sure the plate is worth more than the car.
Bastard had too much money.And that was from a 'rubbish collection firm' image how much he could have made if they were any good.
I was tempted to say garbage or refuse, but I didn't want to spoil your fun!
surely that has 1 character too many ?J411MESG
I saw Paul Daniels in a Ferrari which had MAG1C on it.
There's a battered Toyota in Stanmore, north London, which has [b]OPU 1M[/b] [i]opium[/i] (but spelt wrong) which I quite like.
And am I alone in being amazed that someone would buy this? Read the "17" as a "n" and you have a misspelt rude word...

A good mate of mine has F18 NET on her MR2 and M15 BKR on her Yamaha something or other.

S9 LUT
EW D1C
also there a rather rich chap with his initials on EM 1 who supposedly kept on turning down ridiculous amounts of money for the plate for years from a certain music company.
wonder if he was a bit peeved off when they went bust?
Used to see some prannit driving a loud, purple Lamborghini Diablo up and down Green Lanes in London. The most appropriate number for the car must've been taken, as he had D1BLO - probably better not to have bothered at all. Oh look, here comes the Diblo.
I have NL11XXG 8)
I may be tricked by the passage of time but I have a distinct memory as a child (living on the estate of a catholic seminary) that the nuns had Morris Minor (in a sorta duck egg blue) with the reg V1RGN.
Also recall a motor with USA51S which for some reason as an 8 yo I thought was waaaay cool.... 😳
there are loads that i see but few that amuse 2 that i remember are
THE 911 on a 911! cant remember where and BOX 512 on a ferrarri 512? at silverstone unless i could find JAG 1 and could afford it for my clio dont think i could be that bothered TBH
Judge jules used to have a merc with 'disco x' on it, saw it outside code in birmingham one night. Theres a discovery with' tory boy' on round the corner too.
Used to be an XJS with CAV17Y which I hoped belonged to a dentist
A well known producer of gentlemens special interest movies rides round Nottingham in a big 4x4 with the plate B16.0MAR
There's a Ferrari (it's been on a few, the owner is the proprietor of an Italian supercar exotica dealer/bodyshop) in Honley/Huddersfield that has G1 RLS.
His son has a top spec range rover with A1EX. Guess his name? Ill give you a clue, it's not Daniel.
I'm trying to buy FA57 WAX at the moment for one of the Valeting/Detailing Vans.

How does that work?
I have Seen "1 POD" on the back of a smart 4wd parked in Haldon Car park with bike racks on.....
So who's is it??
I've seen R1 on a Range Rover, mate had A 1.6v VW (A16 VVW) and 10tus (Lotus), I've also seen 51MON (Simon) to name a few.
Ile have a proper look when I get home off holiday, its an old style plate though
There's a pic on the www somewhere of a drain-cleaning van with
WH0 5HAT
