I did try and get AN12REW on the day it was issued with a view to selling it straight away (it was listed for something like £500), but it turns out getting a number as popular as that was nigh on impossible - the site was falling over itself for the first half of the day it was issued and you couldn't get through on the phone either. Shame I wasn't more successful - AN12REW was on the DVLA site for around £500 as I remember - I've just had an email from Elite Registrations offering me AN13REW for £11,795! Doesn't mean it will sell of course, but I'm guessing a company like that knows how to value plates and find a home for them - but it does make me realise why the ordinary punter doesn't have a hope in hell of getting such a plate direct from the DVLA. It does also beg the question why the government coffers aren't topped up by selling the plates at their true market value. |

That would be far too logical and upset friends of the government.

Not between a pair of Chirons, perchance?

Definitely not! There was an R8 next door but one, but I can't remember what it was parked between, so nothing memorable.

I recently saw what looked like P11KEY on a Mitusubishi L100 double cab. Appropriate.

EL10 TYO on a grey RS3, misspaced as EL10T YO.
The car was being driven at a considerable lick in a straight line, but was fully reeled in under braking and roundabouting by a momentum-conserving M3 saloon before then shooting off again in a straight line thereafter.

Ah. As a driving instructor once told me, "any nob head can drive fast in a straight line." Eliot Yo? Really? Ugh. |

Perhaps V8 4.4 MSL would have been better ??

Given that it's not a 4.4, then no.
V8 MSL was up at POA a while ago and I got no response from the company selling, so I doubt it was actually for sale.

For full git plate effect (I don't think it is when spaced properly BTW), either space it as V44M SL or have your full name put along the bottom of the plate.

MIW 12 on a DB 9 and MIW 14 on an SL 500 AMG.
Apart from initials I cannot figure out why.

I just don't get why people randomly put a screw in a plate like that. You cannot possibly explain it away as a fixing for the plate. It just looks desperate.
At Castle Coombe last weekend it was as much a git plate fest as a supercar fest. There were some truly cringeworthy examples present.

I do not get how they get away with it. Is it an MOT failure or something? Perhaps it should be when plates are spaced incorrectly.
