  • Personalised number plates - Best and worst

    There are some really cringe-worthy ones out there. Worst I ever saw was:

    Bravo One Six November Oscar Bravo

    B16NOB

    What a c*ck!

        They all read the same thing to me.

          Too true - money better spent elsewhere!

            Agreed.

            The worst ones are the ones that don't really relate to anything; just a word on a number-plate for the sake of it. Like M3LON. And the owner has no connection whatsoever with fruit.

            There are alot round this way with the first part of the post-code - AB51. And OIL1234 etc. (not far from Aberdeen).

              Forgot to mention one I did see in Congleton, Cheshire - woman pulls up on double yellows outside high street shop in a SLK merc - plate was 5NOB - she certainly was one!
              There seems to be a growing number of boy racers in hot hatches around here who insist on squeezing up the letters and numbers and putting the screw heads in the wrong place - and they still don't read anything

                Why do they feel the need? It's so naff! And offensive.

                  CLA 55Y made the news when it was issued, I remember watching it (I think it was on a Cortina?)! It was way before personalised plates became tradeable.

                  I don't mind them either way; some look naff, some look cool, I don't subscribe to the negatives about them. If someone wants to buy a different plate to the one they have; that's their business, not mine.

                  Remember, we all have personalised plates - so watch what you're saying about folk with more unusual ones than your own.

                  Personally, I'd have one if I could find the right one.

                  My favourites are:

                  W1 TCH on a Black M3 in Glasgow.
                  POT 80S on a fruit and veg van in Glasgow.
                  M1 NCE on a butcher's van in Camelon.

                    I regularly we a lovely brunette in an SLK AMG Merc with SEXXY as the plate.
                    well, that was a bad idea!

                        Saw CUE 8OY with the 8 more like a B - it was Jimmy Whites car - He was doing a charity thing at Leek snooker centre.

                          Not cheap. Apparently, Paul Daniels' one was MAG1C. I heard of one which went for £100k odd - P1LOT.

                            A football chap paid almost £300k for one a while back.
