Vehicle Number Plates

Postby LANDROVER ROGER » Fri Aug 29, 2008 8:36 pm

I may tread on a few toes here.But ah well!
As I drive the highways and by-ways I notice that more and more cars now have number plates that in some way show the driver`s name.Very often,they are so contrived that they need deep thought to recognise the name.Very often the number 3 will be used to signify the letter"E".Legal spacings of letters/numbers seem to be ignored.Are they purchased by someone`s Dad eager to please off-spring,or is it a new social trend?I think that my ideal number plate would read....P155 OFF.Is that illegal? :?(Apologies to all illegal number plate suppliers etc.etc.etc...............Dad`s off-spring.....zzzzzzzzzzzzz. :wink:

I heard that the number plate PEN1S was bought for £80000.

Now, what does someone need to think of themselves to buy a number plate like that? :?:

Emdee, I can think of a few men who could do with this number!!!!!!!!!!!!!

There's a big businessman round here who has 2 5EXY on his. No, he's not.

I do not have an issue with genuine cherished numbers.It is the ones that are so contrived that only the owner knows what it is supposed to be. :?
