DaveEFI Posted March 22, 2019 Report Share Posted March 22, 2019 I Used to get Autocar (UK car magazine) delivered each week. And never looked at the numbers for sale. Then one week, there was an ad for them on the back page which I saw while it was lying on the table. And a 1970s number which referred to my job jumped out at me. Enquired, and it was only £275 including transfer, so bought it. In the early 90s. Been on 5 cars since. There is a company in my line of work called this, and they saw it and offered me £5000. some years ago. But wasn't tempted. One of those numbers which means nothing to most, but gives a smile to those who do. And very easy for me to remember. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

911-32 Posted March 27, 2019 Report Share Posted March 27, 2019 I had a DVLA issued plate on my 996TT ending in "FTU". I thought that was a little rude/aggressive and hence got a cheap alternative "P10RXB", which is now my Porsche plate. It means nothing but has my RB initials and is kind of Porsche-ish and Boxster-ish and for the low cost, I think its not the worst thing in the world to have. Never had or considered having a personal plate before this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sazzy Posted March 28, 2019 Report Share Posted March 28, 2019 Loads of people round here have plates spelling the town or village they live in, lately I've see loads, they must be getting more popular. Is that just a Cornwall phenomenon?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeh, they used OOV plates for the press cars (namely the P1). Otherwise they tend to use one's ending MCL for their other cars as short term loaners and demo's etc. Ferrari UK tend to use plates ending FNE (Ferrari Northern Europe) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
