    I miss my Valiant with the black plate, AE2604. Way cooler than some silly $500 a pop wordplay, if you ask me.

    If you want a reason for having a personalised plate...

    A mate owns 8 (in NZ). He paid a substantial sum for it and several years ago turned down an offer of about 10 times his original outlay.

    8 is lucky for Chinese.

    If you cant spell what you want on a PP, because the plate is already gone, then give up ,you missed out, not to worry, its not the end of the world.
    I had a PP for years, when they first came out, took a lot of years before I got over what a tosser I was for spending the money [ $250 second hand].
    And yes it had the correct spelling

    Can be round Bobs way. The UK have 7 digits, e.g. M432BGX format up till 2001 or thereabouts, it's changed now to a slightly different number & letter format but I can't remember what right now.

    True - that really annoys me - its supposed to be about personalising etc etc - so why get a plate that looks very similar to something thats already been taken? ie 3s for Es etc

    Did anyone say desparate?

    I think TS will agree, APXHTR is a good one though

    Can anyone get this one? TUKAYL

    For all the father ted fans, RSBSKT is still available.
    And I to my motorcycle parked like the soul of the junkyard. Restored, a bicycle fleshed with power, and tore off. Up Highway 106 continually drunk on the wind in my mouth. Wringing the handlebar for speed, wild to be wreckage forever.

    In this increasingly regulated world where non std mufflers are becoming a problem & most any modifications will require certification it will get to the point like in Germany where everything will require TUV certification & it will be illegal to put tires on a car (or bike) if they haven’t been approved for that model.

    To be limited to think you are personalising you vehicle because of a limited amount of choices of plate when the rest of it looks like the same box everyone is driving is SAD.

    Like Posh sez, people with plates like FAST 5 (unless on an audi perhaps).
    -So great, you’re the 6th person to come up with that idea. Neato.

    & some of the narcissistic ones are just making people think ‘gee you’re vain buddy’ & there’s some plonker driving some American shitbox with EV1L

    Ohhh I’m scared. Pussy.
    Don't you look at my accountant.

    Black Hummer H2.

    Parked in Takapuna yesterday, sprawled over two slots while cages crawled sadly round and round looking for spare parking places.

    'HUMMAR'.

    W*nker.

    Oh, yes, that's right, I have a Motochek account [edit: and a defective memory of the conditions I signed up to when I acquired it].

    Heard what I'm sure was that plate being mentioned on ZB yakback a couple of weeks ago, it was on a Monaro or summat.

    Anyway the driver of that car needs dragged from the car and shot and his plate rammed up his jacksy going by the comments from people on the show that had seen it driven in a cretinous manner on two or three different occassion, this driver makes cro-magnon seem like Einstien going by his driving style

    To those who think a plate won’t get them more likely to be picked up for speeding or *555 complaints read above.

    There’s a turkey in some little shopping cart painted bright yellow & the plate ULIKEIT. Heck makes ME want to stove his doors in & leave a note saying NO I BLOODY WELL DON’T. Cops are human too & you know anything that rarks them up like LWBRKR or 100MPH (you listening Mal?) is going to make the owner a target.
    Don't you look at my accountant.
