She gave me a wink when she saw that I had twigged it, dirty mare.

Seriously, why?
Life's too short, etc.

For pretty much the exact same reason I hate txt speak. If I receive a text along the lines of "alr8 m8, whts up wht u? I find it annoying to read. The fact that someone would spend money (sometimes quite a lot) to adorn their car with such grammatical shambles I find pretty tragic. If someone on this forum was posting in text speak on a daily basis he'd annoy a lot of people wouldn't you say?

As I said, I don't find car models on plates so annoying, usually because a 911 or a 458 for example can have a plate that says exactly that. It's a bit brash, but at least it's not an affront to grammaticality. Initials I can just about tolerate but I find it puzzling why anyone would want to broadcast who they are via that medium.

Was she dyslexic?

Didn't get the chance to find out unfortunately. I was just reaching the vinegar strokes when the lights changed and she drove off...

I knew a bloke who's initials were JRK. Someone pointed out that his number plate looked like 'Jerk'
I had a customer who had an old Triumph Mayflower with the reg 'OPT 8', an optician offered him silly money for the plate alone but the owner declined.

There was a family owned ice cream parlour and vans in E. yorks. They had a TRY 99S and BUY 99S which always made me chuckle. Company has disappeared now but saw one of the plates on a small Toyota recently.

There's an M3 around here who has something like 51LY TOY. Not sure exactly on the lettering but it reads as silly toy which amuses me

Yet another customer of mine had plates, GYM 1, GYM 2, GYM 3 etc on his vans. He even changed the name of his logo's on the vans to Gym A* Transport, instead if Jim A* Transport. That seemed weird as he had nowt to with gym's or fitness!

V461 NAS.

Which could've been what the vehicle was allocated with? (I see your point though)

I saw WE57 HAM on a Range Rover Sport recently.

A local tree surgeon has LOP 1T on his Defender.

I have a plate based on my initials. I absolutely love it, and it makes me smile everytime I see it. Doensn't matter a jot if no-one else gets it...

I saw FOD 1S on a car a while back.
The driver must have been Portuguese.

I don't like the awful combinations of letters, I just think they look tragic when you know it's [i]supposed[/i] to say something but you can't work out what...

I like the idea of a secret code that only very few people would 'get' but those who did would chuckle. The best one I've seen is TH10 SUX. Meaningless to the average individual but if you're an anaesthetist or A&E doc you might recognise it as Thio, Sux. AKA the ingredients for a rapid-sequence induction. The more tenuous the better! In a similar vein, I quite fancy M970 XTR. Can't seem to buy it anywhere though.

I do like the idea of buying a timeless plate and keeping an older (and slightly different) car well-serviced and shiny. Maybe a BMW Z4 Coop or [s]Boxster[/s] Coxster. No idea where the bike would go though.

2 on anaesthetists cars round here are DR02GAS and TT GAS, which used to be on a TT but I don't think it is any more.

Knee surgeon has N6 ACL.

I've not seen V14GRA for a while, it used to be on an old Rav 4.

RUN 1T on a porsche.

D1 WHY on a property developers truck.

I suspect Sheffield may be second only to Wilmslow for private plates and Range Rovers.

It's hardly having an extended conversation, though, is it? It's barely even a Twitter post!
Again, life's too short to give a shit. There are far more important and pressing things to get enraged about than a few letters and numbers on a car's registration plate.
Honestly... ๐Ÿ™„

See a couple of Audi Q7 s running around with X5 and then combination of letters that I assume are their initials. Presume they are hanging on to the plates in case they do buy another X5. Makes me laugh though.

A couple of Police Divers I know have D1 5SRT (specialist search and recovery team) and J2 USU (underwater search unit).

Shame they've just disbanded the dive section...!

For short time landlord of a boozer in my local village had P1.18
MAN
on his IOM registered SUV. It did read instantly as pub man and got him constant grief from the law thanks to the black bolt cover between the 1s.
Guy I knew in the surf industry near Penzance had H1 5URF on his Honda NSX. Again it eventually got sold on as it was a constant hassle.

On the one hand, I think it's ridiculous. On the other, fair enough!

There used to be a large SUV around Nottingham with the reg B16 0MAR. A colleague explained to me that it belonged to a well known purveyor of gentlemens special interest movies.

I used to see a Jag with the plate CAV17Y. I always hoped it belonged to a dentist.

One of the cleverest I know of is

WUN 234V

The current over spotted it on a new car and stopped the owner and offered to buy the car (and plate) when they wanted to sell it.

No idea what it's on these days
