View Full Version : The most unfortunate license plate I ever saw

Last night, I was headed down Dominion Rd and passed a bloke on a GN250 that had THE most unfortunate license plate I have ever seen. The plate was:

15PEW

which on the face of it doesnt seem that bad until you relaise that the font they use on the plates made the 15 look like IS. Mind you, it could have been a personalised plate and he was just stating a life choice. I feel for the guy, but had to chuckle to myself for a few minutes anyway. :2thumbsup

Yep, I've seen them and made the same connection - bloody dangerous plates, those! Uncontrollable laughter when riding a bike in public is not a good idea.

It's not a plate, but the best sign I've seen was outside Hokitika.

Come to think of it, a bloke I worked with had an HSV Dunnydore with DV8 as the plate, so they must be getting a little more lenient.

Just as an aside, a few years back some bright spark with a spray can had a go at the Ramarama off ramp sign headed south and wrote "Ding-dong" on it, which I thought that was hilarious but no one else did.

When pers plates were first released DIEPIG was available, see its not allowed now. Big balls required for that one. MOTSUX was for sale a while ago. Thought of getting TSBSUX, suicidal? I think maybe.

Hmmm, no need to put your birth year on your profile when you write posts like that one.

Every time I pass that sign, that song comes into my head... goes to show how old I am.

And no, it wasn't me with the spray can.

H8PORK .. from memory it was on a wanked up muscle car down in wellington.. I've got a vague idea it may have been associated with that rich dude who owned james smiths markets and had the team satan car.

Also for the geeks amongst us, I sae 31337 on a black japper type car up in Orkland a few years ago.

Soft porn queen Fiona Richmond had PEN 15 ,I`m pretty sure ex-Suzi racer now t.v. commentator Steve Parrish has it now.Old-style plates like that go for a lot of money these days,my ex-landlord up in Scotland had A6 ,god knows what he paid for that but it`ll have been a great investment.
And what`s wrong with Osama? It`s a middle-eastern name,end of story.I dont go around trashing people called Tony because they share the same given name as a guy who ordered cluster bombs to be dropped on civilians,or Henry because some arsehole of the same name carpet-bombed Cambodia.

I always wanted 5OSLO (since 50SLO is taken). Came into my head after seeing a Skyline down this way with 2SLW50 or something similar. But from experience with personalised plates on cars, I'd never get one for the bike - people remember them, and that might be a good thing if you think speed kills, but...

A few years back I had to re-register a kawasaki. Down at VTNZ, after filling in the forms and passing the inspection, the lady fossicks about in a box of plates and returns with 69USA. I am temporarily stunned, before and can say anything, the plate is whisked away as it is has been ordered by somebody else and I cannot have it. The replacement...

10USD

apt given the resale value of the bike (and my place of employment)

Supposedly the LTNZ has always prevented the release of sequences that could be regarded as "offensive" E.G. DIK123 for example.
But some must get through because I did see a car with ANU567
(looks like ANUS)

What annoys me is that you would be told to get lost if you tried to buy a plate with SHIT or FAECES on it, but there are two plates in existence now with TUTAE and TUTAE2 on them - discrimination?

I am not allowed my first initial and surname on a plate as it is deemed offensive - FKING - that's not fair!

One of my favourites is on a drycleaner's van in Wellington - TAKEN2 and there used to be this Jap sports car with PKT4RE too.

Someone mentioned recently the news item about the GAY plates being issued. I often see personalised plates that are baffling or dumb, but noticed a couple of plates lately that really are unfortunate or perhaps ironic and are not personal but standard issue. Anyone got some doozy's to tell?

I've seen a plain detectives Commodore SV with the plate DYK, :facepalm: and today we passed, and were repassed, by a new Porsche Panamera S with the plate FFS79, <_< (I'll give you a few more seconds on that one...)

I'm not sure why the NV actually received that number plate. It was deemed by the NZTA that no Honda motorcycles would need a number plate with GAY in it as it was plainly obvious that the rider was a full blown out & proud poof. They are in fact supposed to be reserved purely for other vehicle owners, yes even scooters, where the owner wants to tell the world they are gay too. Like their Honda riding boyfriend.

Saw a little old lady in a wee car with the plate FUD, and a Urgent Courier van with the appropriate plate DUE.

Not sure about the car with FRT on it either.

Any new one's you've spotted lately?

A few years ago my sister and I bought cars from the same dealer only a couple of days apart. Her plate was BEG369 and mine was BEG371

I always thought it was lucky that the first number on her plate wasn't a 4.

My plates on the VW Beetle were TRIARD (most of the time it was broken down and I was heavily into Triathlon) and she has plates that said (UWISH)
That looked good together parked in Parnell back in the days...
I still have the plates, but they are on the van I sold and the neighbour isn't fast in swapping them and giving back....
Got them for my eighteenth birthday, back then they were only about $300 odd?

When personalised plates first came out I remember an ad on the radio which went something like "to advertise your business you could buy 371 beer coasters or a personalised plate". By the time I got mine for the car (46th birthday present) they had gone up to high $500s, now they are astronomical!

They were on the market for approx $395 I believe? I may be wrong, but 1984 approx that is the time Mum bought one for me....Had it ever since, almost. It is next door! :)
It will mine again next week :)

The figure I remember was 371 ( I have a weird memory for useless bits of information such as old rego plates and phone numbers. But I will happily agree that we're in the same ball park :yes:

Took me quite a while to come up with a musical one because by the time we bought mine pretty much everything musical that I could think of that fitted was already taken! It has graced the last 3 cats I have owned.

Our 2000cc Vulcan cruiser is fitted with a pp an reads: 2L VN. Easy to understand, so i thought.
Late last year, stopped in Bulls for gas. An older gent comes up & starts ramblin away how he used to have one and how highly underrated those motors were in their day. They could still pull a decent trailer like the v6's...... an on he went.

Had me phucked, so had to interrupt and ask him wtf he was on about!?!?!

Turns out, he read the plate in reference to an old model VN holden commodore, apparently they came out in a 2 litre four cylinder model! He had the station wagon with the four pot in it, thought it was the bees knees. Fark, a four cylinder commo, it must have been gutless as.

Had to explain to him what the plate actually meant. Silly ole coot.

What annoys me is that you would be told to get lost if you tried to buy a plate with SHIT or FAECES on it,


You'd need to disguise it a little? I was sitting behind a plumbers van at the lights, he had a custom plate: POSWES.

The VC model (well before the VN) also came out with a 2ltr.
The VN was a total piece of crap (disregarding the engine...).

Had a look recently and found some that surprised me. The following are available WANK1 (not 1WANK that's considered offensive) similarly PRICK1 is available and again 1PRICK is considered offensive. FUDD1 and FANNY1 also available as is PISHY.

The cost of plates here are cheap as chips when compared to UK prices. One of the plates here with the number 1 in it was $969 the equivalent in the UK with the number 8 instead of 1 had an asking price of equivalent of $40k!!!
