I gave them a call today, and was initially told that it might not be available anymore as it's such a great plate.
I was told that it's a 'name' plate, and 3k is an 'investment price.' (Was constantly told that it's an 'investment price').
Anyway, as the conversation went on, it turns out the 'plate is indeed still available sir, but there is ALOT of interest in it!!!'
I asked why such an ordinary plate is so expensive?
Was told again, it's not an ordinary plate, it's a name plate, and it's at an investment price.
Said they could take 2 or 3 hundred pounds off the price, but I said that it is still way too high.
So it's kinda back in their court. If they get desparate for the sale they might ring me back, but I'm not holding out much hope.
Not to worry. Should probably be searching for plates that would suit my daughters' names, as I do already have a plate on my W220.
