Private Plates

stuartmmcfc · 06-01-10, 07:04 PM

I've always been a bit unsure if I like these or not. i think "names" are a bit sad but I quite like funny or car related ones.
I'm thinking about having one on my Evo. Since I dont want to spend a lot of money (the cheapest "EVO" plate is nearly a grand!) I'm thinking of having a "BLU" plate eg "M** BLU" since it is a Lagos Blue Special Edition and its relatively cheap.
Since I sort of value your opinions (

)What do you think of having the plate "M** BLU" on my Integrale

Ditto, rather spend the money on better suspension, brakes, performance, tyres etc etc

simple initials with a number or two - Cool

peoples Names spelt out - chavish

messing with the spacing and nut heads to make something else - pointless, daft, pretentious etc

if you have to try hard to make it say something, then the point is lost.

My GTO, had the reg- G10CHA from the previous owner. He wanted £500 for it, because if you put black screws in certain places it says GTO CHA. So what? The reflector strip above it says GTO anyway.

My S4 however has S4DRX, and I didn't pay for it. I wouldn't buy it myself; But It is an S4, and it was owned by a Doctor.

I would have my initials with a digit, but only after i have everything else sorted. I can't understand splashing out £500+ on reg numbers, though, when the car it's bolted to needs a £1000 or more in work or bits.
