Nearly as bad as those people who try mis-spell the model name of there car because they cant get the right plate.. like having S200 instead of S2000 or S200D!!

As long as they can pay for them with their own money why not, all the revenue raised by idiots like this keeps cost down for the rest of us.
Now if plod was to find him and have a word, that'd be good.

Apparently the Scots are the most addicted. Heard on the Scottish news tonight that according to an elephant.co.uk survey, 8 out of 10 of the top post code districts for cherished plates are in Scotland.

Killearn, Strathblane and Fintry were up there with nearly 15% of drivers having personalised plates.

I have seen one good number plate. Ever.

F355RED

On a red Ferrari 355.

S200O+initials is acceptable

Anyone who drives an old M5 is asking for trouble!

Load of rubbish!

I'm thinking of changing the plate on my old 2CV (when I get it) just to a none suffix type so you can't tell the age. I've seen some on the DVLC web site-how easy is it to do?

I really hate those who use a mirror of the number 3 to masquerade as an E

Kind regards

i saw RR1 on mud brown roller in the 80's and NSX1 the other day going over tower bridge

otherwise cant see how this plate is any sadder than having an S2000 blah blah or s200 bla bha or any other plate unless is it properly personal, like Alan Sugars one for example

we've been through this before Billy

that isn't, and therefore you don't own, an old M5
