Nice car - drug dealer? :lol:
Very classy indeed, not sure about the plate thoguh and I never got to see the driver.
Nice car - drug dealer? :lol:
When you look long into an abyss, the abyss looks long into you.........
Must have cost a fair bit that... nice though, and on a suitable car to match... drug dealer for sure, or Ryan Gigs :lol:
I believe it belongs to Graham Leslie.
How nice to call the chap a DD. Appears to be owned by a Ferrari racer called G. Leslie. Two minutes on Google to find out.
Edit: beaten to it.

There's a lady who drives around Nottingham in a Range Rover with the reg S1UTT :lol:
Nice machine
I used to see a lady (for want of another word) driving a BMW with the plate B16 VAG around Leeds
There's a girl who drives around rural Warwickshire in a Range Rover with the reg "NO NIX". Unfortunately it's got blackened glass, so I've never got a good look inside :D
Saw a nice Porsche some time ago. Said "GELDJÄGER" (money hunter). Subtle.
Good looking ride though. Flat dark green it was.
Seen a Lambo in London with PR05PER :roll:
G1 RLS was originally sold by DVLA for £5,900 (plus VAT and auction fees) in April 1995 :)
Many years ago, someone was driving around South East London with the plate '69 job'........it always stuck in my mind!
Used to see a Rolls Royce a few years ago around the Henley on Thames area with the number plate "FU 2" proudly displayed. :)
The plates of taxis start with 'SH' where I live.
Used to see one with the plate SH 1 T.
:D

A month or two ago I saw a Maserati around Docklands with the numberplate N4STY, this thread shows that money certainly doesn't buy class. Speaking of which anyone see the monstrosity that Stephen Ireland got his girlfriend for her birthday?
About a month ago, I came very close to buying DO51COW for my wife. But she didn't seem to want it....
Saw a car with the first four letter PE DO at Hannover zoo last month. In Germany the VRN starts with the first two letters of the town name, then random letters and digits.
This one?Originally Posted by Cannop

Used to see a yellow Lotus Elan in Kent/SE London with the number plate 'ORGA5M'.
Why do people do this?!

Used to have a neighbour in Belsize Park who had a Mini with PEN 15 as a plate. God knows why :?
Two of my favs in Chelsea, 2 be and not 2 be. Looks great when they're parked next to each other.
A local person here has H15 TOY which I would love to buy for my new car.
The H15 TOY used to drive around sheffield a lot on a (I think) range rover sport.Originally Posted by NickMSM
I think I have seen a girl driving round in a MX-5 with that plate on it.Originally Posted by swanbourne
Poss! It's been in Sussex for a good few years.

A few years back I was stuck in rush hour traffic behind a Nissan 350 with the reg W4NKR
I couldn't decide if he was trying to be ironic, his initials were NKR and he hadn't worked out that the W4 plate was cheap for a reason or he knew what it said and thought it was funny :roll:
I've also seen a yellow Honda S2000 with the reg that spelt: Mr Stud. Lame doesn't even start to describe that plate.
Saw an immaculate M635csi a while ago with the plate E24 BMW - if you're a fanboy you'll understand :D

I used to see a BMW (Z4 I think) quite often a year or so back in Rhyl with the number plate P155 OFF. :shock:
Charming :lol:
I think I've seen these two - aren't they normally parked somewhere off Cheyne Walk?Originally Posted by NickMSM
In the Sotadic Zone, apparently.
I think you're correctOriginally Posted by Carlton-Browne
Back in the 80s 1 UPU and UPU 2 used to knock around the West Glasgow /Loch Lomond area.
Also a fellow competitor had (on loan I think) a Lancia Delta S4 in Martini colours DRY 1 which I thought was quite apt....
Campbell McLaren had JAG 1 on his XKss and JAG 120 on his .........XK120
He also mounted his (genuine) Ecurie Ecosse D Type on the wall above his swimming pool*. When asked why, he said "well, I've got to put it somewhere"
Cheers -JP
* I have a pic of that too (somewhere)
Steve Parish had that plate for a while.Originally Posted by Seabadger
This was a while ago - c.2003 or thereabouts. I don't think I ever saw the driver / owner.Originally Posted by Reeny
Driving through Burford last Saturday afternoon I saw a Chrysler Viper with V1PER. Looked, (and sounded), very good.
Harvey Craig of Birtley Van Hire used to have 1 UP, 2 UP and 123 UP. One of them was on a gold DBS V8 Vantage.

I went to a Gatecrasher gig in Liverpool a few years ago (quite a few now, not my thing really but was following a girlie :roll: ....) One of the cars out front was an 8series BMW with D1SCO.
And there's a chap around nottingham drives a Yellow Boxster with TOY BOY (don't know how he's made that - T111 with some carefully placed black screwcovers?) - funy thing is he must be mid 50s and looks anything but a toyboy
A few years ago my Mum was reporter for the local rag in the north east of Scotland. She used to cover the court cases, one of which was a boy called Kevin, who was done for driving his Ford Capri with the registration plates KEV1N fitted. Apparently he didn't know that you couldn't just get the plates made up in Halfords and put them on your car...

Per my previous post
Pic of Ex Campbell McLaren XKss JAG 1
Looking at the pic in my previous post reminds me that I bought the (Longman) engine and (Jack Knight) gearbox from him that was in his Metro Challenge car (behind the Jag xk120 ). I put it in a Mk II Cooper S and it flew.......Why oh Why did I sell it :roll:

I thought Branson fought that one back in the seventies when the Sex Pistols NMTB was released. As I recall Mortimer was the defence barrister and won the case argueing that it was an old english word referring to a monk or preist. Anyway the courts found it not to be obscene and the album sold millions more as a result. :)Originally Posted by notenoughwrists
Up till the 2007 plates came out, Edinburgh used SN and the year letters - so you had SN 02 and so on. The year it was to be 07, they only issued TN, TK etc.c, so's you couldn't spell SNOT with it, and did the same with some 08 so you couldn't spell SNOB :)
I quite fancied SNOB, sure I don't know why :roll: This time I'm stuck wwith SL10 - - -
A woman near us did slightly better than her husband in a divorce battle. She drove around in a BMW with the registration plate 1 WON
Anyone in Leeds seen a Scirroco - i think - with plate L3EDS?
