Custom number plates

[Bahnhof Strasse]

I'm pretty sure I once saw M16 Spy on a porsche on embankment once. Which is your example but twice as stupid.

DVLA says it is now on a BMW. I wonder if the luggage space is sufficient?

Was it parked on double yellows, in a disabled spot, or on zig-zags? If so it could've been Spymaster's motor, as seen here...

Personalised number plates in spotlight in Wolverhampton

Artist Suki Chumber says plates are increasingly being used to reveal more about the car's driver.

I remember seeing regularly in Chelsea about 25 years ago a car with the number plate A3 RAT- one of the very few personalised plates that has made me smile- even though I’d still wouldn’t get if even off I had tgst kind of disposable income. I once actually spotted it on the A3, which was oddly satisfying. Having said that, if I was driving on the A3 and some cunt with such number plate behaved like a twat around me, I probably wouldn’t find it funny at all.

I have always "known" that 70's porn star (for I was a teenaged boy in the 70s) Mary Millington, famously had the number plate FU2.

Googling it, it turns out it belonged to Paul Raymond, a "porn baron" of that era.

It is up for sale if anyone fancies it.

i occasionally see a car with SOxx MET registration parked near where i live - presumably a copper in one of the specialist units, although not sure it's that good an idea to advertise it...

Years ago, the Reading Anarchists published a list of all of the Reading based Thames Valley police's "plain clothes police cars. Good work.

i'd have thought this would be the individual's private car though...

I thought Fiona Richmond had that on a white etype?

I also "knew" (my Dad told me) that it was Fiona Richmond. (although I had a red Mini Cooper in my mind's ye for some reason)

Isn't Google good?

ETA - and a Merc

 

[mx wcfc]

Yeah, my mistake.

Goodness, I'm embarrassed for remembering that....but she was seeing Malcolm Allison for a while when he was at palace.

 

[nick]

Yeah, my mistake.

If confusing Fiona Richmond with Mary Millington is the biggest mistake you make today, you will be having a pretty good day

(PS- just googled Mary Millington - very sad life)

Are custom plates so wrong if they are linked to the car?

 

[WouldBe]

Personalised number plates are like when your mum wrote your name in your clothes at junior school so you'd know which was yours.

 

[nick]

I get your point but..... isn't the whole raison d'être of all numberplate to identify which one is yours?

Yes but it depends how good you are at remembering random numbers and letters. Some people may need something simpler.

if someone wants to pay me £50 I can write their name or whatever they like on their car in tippex. Much cheaper than the DVLA and without the prescriptive formatting.

I know of two cars with matching number plates, matching mascots and matching custom paint.
Is a personalised plate any worse or any better than a mascot or wrap for instance?

I couldn’t take a pic as I was on my bike, but yesterday I spotted a Tesla with the number plates D3CAY.

Interesting choice. I’d like to think there was once was a successful death metal band called Decay, and this is the car of the lead singer.

No photo but there was a posh car with the number plate 007 parked in the street outside where I worked some years ago.
Our milkman was just delivering and commented that it would have cost him more to aquire that than the price he paid for the car!

There are plates around that would cost more than the average home.

Truth is far from this, sorry to disappoint.

D3CAY lives in Streatham, with T10 OTH (or something similar) as a second car. Dentists, or sugar manufacturers perhaps.

Bloody hell unless you’re a cop or work for the DVLA, are you telling me Joe Public can find look up where the registered owner of a vehicle lives by means of their number plate?

No, I walk down the road they're parked on about once a week
