What private/ personal number plate have got

[Optimus prime]

IMHO there is no point making it car specific as it will have to stay with the car when sold so kind of waste of money really

When I sold the 430 the guy did not want to pay for the plate. So I was left with the plate and no car but to my relief he called a week later and bought it, so I got my money back on the plate.

in the car park of my local doctors surgery i saw 4 DRS on a merc

At the end of the day, the plate like any other asset is only worth as much as someone is prepared to pay for it, as it is so specific/personal/relative to that individual.

Mine is my initials and the digits are of no relevance. I wanted to purchase a plate with the least amount of digits I could afford, its AH 16.
My wife Rebeccas plate is 6 ECA as she has always been referred to as Becca. Makes sense to us anyway!

A car leaving the local tennis club caught my attention, the plate was 15 LOV. Don't normally notice plates but thought that was a good one.

B. the DVLA are still issuing numbers which are clearly going to be abused by chavs with their extra dots and altered letters/numbers because it makes money .

Bit harsh ,I know doctors and a professor that have spaced there plates wrong and my self none of us are chavs unless you have a different definition of chavs

If you need to add bolt covers , mis space things , or generally tamper with it in any way then it's not a personal plate , it's a mess. Always makes me laugh when I see it.

Cheapens the look of the car too.

I think a cheap non altered legally spaced plate is better than a doctored illegally spaced plate.
For example I personally would rather have UXZ 333 than M44T PA (Matt and my intitials)

The doctored one just makes it look stupid and you couldn't afford a 'real' PERSONAL plate where as the other one just looks nice enough and not stupid for a PRIVATE plate

People get confused between private and personal plates. I also agree that car specific plates are pointless, unless you're that rich you can afford to give away LAM80 when you sell you Lamborghini and buy a Ferrari!!

I've seen G1PSY on a white van in this area, though the 1 looked very like an 'I'. Perhaps he couldn't get P1KEY!

Does any one know of any body that has got the fine tho ,all the people I know have either never been stopped or have been told to take it off and put on a plate spaced right

I was done £100 fine and reported to dvla , been 10 months and not heard a thing from dvla but the fine was through the post in days !!!!!

A females' oblique référence to wanting a heavier weight duvet, perhaps.

ELZ 4647 on my wife's Jazz.

ELZ short for Elizabeth and if you add together 4647 you get 21. I gave her the plate on her 50th birthday - saying youll always be 21 to me. (Boy I know how to creep)
