Maybe it's just me, but I can't see the logic of taking a '22 plate off a brand new car for that.
I genuinely looked it up thinking maybe it was a '20 Tesla and the plate was just the original reg that they'd stuck into some online shyster plate dealer to get rid of one of those ugly dealer branded plates. But no, it's brand spanking new.
Maybe not everyone is so hung up about others knowing that they have got a ‘brand spanking new’ car?
Slightly passive aggressive… I’ll have you know I’ve never bought a new car. Plus aren’t personalised plates an exercise in vanity?
Anyway it’s the absolute default to have the ‘22 plate, so hardly showing off. You have to go out of your way to take the ‘22 plate off. I don’t see the logic in making a conscious effort to switch to this (not to mention the the plate doesn’t comply with basic requirements). There’s plenty of good plates I could understand. Perhaps it means more to the owner than it looks to at face value, could be a company name or something.

Can a 2 be an R in the world of trick number plates and it’s supposed to say “CHRONOS”?
I know women that I would grade as nightmares but I also have mates who live with them - so what? it's their choice - same with cars - very subjective.
I never ciriticise a bloke's choice of car or women or watches - it demonstrates disrepect and can also be dangerous.
I always like the one in the (new) Saint BTW.

Probably said on here before but I’ve seen illegal plates that have been used for so long they’ve been on 3 or 4 different cars. Plod don’t seem bothered which is interesting given the reliance on readable plates for speed cameras and ANPR generally.
Saw X CL10 X (yes, on a Clio) yesterday. You could see it was obviously an illegal plate before you were close enough to read it.

Didn't get a photo as I was driving, but saw a Golf or a Polo yesterday with the plate

Not totally sure but I may have posted this before. Opposite my dad's flat.
That parking is poggers

There's also the issue of availability.
1 F, 4 F and 5 F are in use but may well not have been for sale for years.
It's possible that 2, 3 and 6 have never been released, are on retention or were on cars that were scrapped at a time when no-one considered these things could have some value.
21 F is up for sale at the moment with an asking of £210,000, and 65 F for £45,000.
