i agree i think there great if you get a decent one, but decent ones cost!!!! cant always tell difference between a normal number plate and one with personalised initials on??? or is it just me?

Is your mate Mike Cracknell ha ha ha ha.

I think they can look good, as long as you don't just make up a reason why the plate is for you then its ok, my uncle used to have something like r23 vkw

He just made it up that it was Vicky and Keith Wakefield, what a load of balls lol.

Most look wank IMO, though some are good.

PEN1S was class, as was NOT 1N

6th November 2006, 13:16
They are 'look at me' things, which is fine... if you have a 30 grand bmw or something. On a saxo or something else.. gay as fuck i think (my opinion!) - on a real nice motor tho.. it works

goat_janine
6th November 2006, 13:49
As soon as i can come up with the money for the one i want, il be getting one. I think they rock.

Why? Why do we bother modding saxo's if we leave the 3 mile long meaningless numberplates on?

private plates are ok if they actually mean something.

amy_1
6th November 2006, 14:33
i think that some can be ok but others can just be silly. if it means something to the person who is driving then that is the main thing. i would love 1 but no way can afford 1 at the moment. i don't think that it really matters what car they are on though so long as it's important to the owner.

6th November 2006, 14:33
i like private plates i had one on my old saxo, and my sis has got one on her clio. am after one for my ibiza, but want to get one with a more personal meaning instead so i can swap it from car to car. Heres mien and my sisters:-

http://img167.imageshack.us/img167/6861/dsc00386ds1.jpg
My sisters one is supposed to say NINA B before anyone asks

did find CU54 PRA for sale which would look the tits on my ibiza (as it is an ibiza cupra) but ideally am after something with 'JAY' or A85 JAY would be nice

BrEvY
6th November 2006, 16:33
Well i would have to say if you get a decent one they look porn, i touched lucky with mine S 13REV as my nick name is Brev and 1st name starts with S ;)
All for the price of £250 from dvla :D.

But that number plate is worth its weight in gold to me, but to others i aint so sure lol :P

There are some bargains out there!, you just gotta find them..

BrEvY
6th November 2006, 16:45
Couldnt edit my post >.<

Yeah i know my cars filthy lol, i tend to get pulled alot for my number plate, but they say the same each time they see me, if we see you again with this on we take you to court... but never do..
You think they would find something better to do with there time than hassle me about my plate, atleast im not buying drugs etc... :s

the police have mentioned my plate once but didnt actually tell me to change them so i havent bothered.

i'm getting a normal one soon. the carbon letters and background SAXO image arent to my taste any more. getting a plain one soon.

that plate would be about £280 after VAT and the DOT assignment fee, but your mate won't be getting N22 APF as that plate is currently in use, just checked it out for ya!

Spot on mate. They are very 'look at me'. I think they're a sign of arrogance to a certain extent. However, on a Merc or a BMW they look ok, but on a Corsa or a Punto or a similar type of car, they look ridiculous.

Posers have private plates.

Is the plate on your car private enough? Its the only one in the country!

hopefully wont be long before i get my xmas bonus at my work an can get "m11 pge" (MartiN PaGE)... gonna put in awee bit o sumin to make the two 1's look a bit more like an "N" . "P4GEY" was up for sale not long ago, depending on what site you went to buy it from you coulda paid anything between 17 an 21 grand for it. bit too much for me

I think they rule.

Was lookiong at getting

AB 51 SAX

or

AB 51 VTR

But then it'll be a Saxo only plate and I'll have to allways have a car newer than 2001.

they look ok. Theres a site on ebay where you type your REG in and you can have fancy borders n shit, n it shows the diagram aswel so u can actually see it at the time, without wishful thinkin lol. Maybe u cud put sumet in, like a personalised Reg, without them knowing :O And it cost me like £34 i think, just had fancy borders n chrome surround, nice 3D txt etc
