According to [url= http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-41025969 ]this piece[/url], DVLA have retained about 300 license plates deemed rude or offensive.
My fnar-foo must be weak today but what's replacing the "67" in the plates to make them rude/offensive? For example: "NO67 MUM"
Not seeing it either.
Maybe if your Mum had just died you'd see it differently?
Only personal plate i would have is P155 OFF but don't think they would release that somehow
In 2 years will they ban all the "69" plates?
I think in those it's just the phrase "No mum" not really sure why that's offensive to anyone though not many of the ones listed make much sense to ban really.
Wonder where V14GRA is these days. Before Viagra was famous/released it was on a new Yaris Verso in Doncaster. I'll bet the owner of the Yaris got more for the plate than the Yaris when they changed car.

Maybe they were hard up till they sold it?
It had a rock solid chassis.
a neighbour has P55 AFE. Must be said in a Glaswegian accent however.
V14GRA I'm sure was on a Porsche that used to be around here, but I've just done a check and come up with no results, so maybe it's been removed from the register.
I read that this morning, don't get most of them AF67 HAN, Afghan possibly?

Was discussing with a colleague we concluded that a driveway containing cars with NO69 MUM, NO69 DAD and NO69 SON plates would be amusing ๐
Ive seen a BI6 NO8 floating around a few times...
I wonder about the person at the DVLA who has the job of thinking of how rude words can be spelled on license plates. That must be a fun job.
That must be a fun job.
It is. It's a B1 AST

Was that you at the Turkish baths?
So it seems I'm not alone. Even our office's Finbar Saunders doesn't see what they are meant to be.
My favourite plates on a gold range rover based in Glasgow
AR51 OLE
Although dvla vehicle check suggests it's no longer in circulation

Job title: RUD 3 HO
When I worked in the garage we used to have GAY69 come in.
Once saw a Corvette with TE51CLE, suspect the plate was to compliment the penis extension car...

Come in what?
Saw this one on a blingy Porsche in Glasgow yesterday :
TUR 80S
Couple of unassuming middle aged lesbians came in to work last year to pick up their canoe. When I went to help them load it I couldn't help laughing at the T5 Caravelle they were driving with the plate
H8 COX
I once saw a boy-racer liveried MG-ZR with the plate KN03 HED. That made me smile.
I think Motorcycle/truck racing legend Steve Parish has PEN 15, although it's turned up nowt on the DVLA website..

Saw a porche down at Kippford last week with POR 911S, it was a 911S too luckily ๐
And there's Derek with his Ferrari in Kippford D3 REK
Just found a pic of it online parked at what looks like Tesck Dumfries ๐

^^^^ is Kippford in Cheshire now ... ? ๐
Just the one house with the white range rover, the M3 BMW, that ferrari and a porsche.
We do attract a better set ๐

Yep Parrish has PEN 15. Met him in the 80's and he had it on a black BMW
I'm sure, years ago driving through Nottingham as students, we were passed by a long & low sports car of some sort, driven by a young lady of the 'easy on the eye' type, which had the plate 130LOX. Or maybe I just dreamt it.

As does 1KER which was apparently spotted in Blythswood square
There's a Glasgow plumbers with M1 BOG ๐
Steve Parrish allegedly bought it so his wife wouldn't drive his car due to the embarrassment
It's been on his Hearse for years
He used to carry an empty coffin in the back and Jamie Whitman once fell out the back when they didn't secure it.(whilst pissed up in said coffin)

Made me s**** out loud

I used to have W111 PME. Which with the correct mounting point and colour became WH1P ME.
A friend who owns a butchers has P9 ORK on their delivery van - not very rude though.
My favourite all time plate I've seen is VAN 15H ( I think that's how it was layed out ) on a Sierra Cosworth 8)
Saw a (black) Shogun (relatively recent, as in last few years, model) with registration P24* KKK today queuing for Eurotunnel. Brave that one.
*Cant remember the exact numbers.
