Anyone seen any good number plates on cars lately?

Leeds Council are thinking of selling the plate on the Mayor's Car (U1) to raise Money as they are cash strapped.

Lord Mayor's car number plate could fetch £500k

Great idea. Flogging off the family silver until they’ve got nothing left to flog and then they’ll be even worse off than they are now.

Yep, we had a similar story in Sunderland a few years back. The Mayor's car here (currently a Volvo S90) has the plate OGR1 which was one of the first number plates issued to the Sunderland area. The Council wanted to sell it but the local historians were up in arms so they scrapped the idea.

JW15FLY on a grey Corsa spaced to read JW is FLY
Dunno who JW is, or if they are actually 'fly', but they were driving like a tool.

Dartford council sold their D1 many years ago, didn’t get that sort of money though.
