Appropriate registration numbers on cars...

My old dentist had K90 UCH

I think I have some form of disorder, as I can remember pretty much every car/motorbike I have ever owned, plus most of my parent's cars from the 70's. But I can never remember where I put down my glasses .

It’s easier to remember the first things, like your first phone number or number plate.
After a while your brain simply has too much stuff to remember and the novelty of new things wears off.

I was close passed today by a W4NK3R with a plate XX NN SUV (genuinely, didn't click the rest as I swerved into the gutter for self preservation). Of course, he immediately stopped to turn right, having gained Z3RO seconds.

What is it with these AR3E HOL3S ?

TOS33R.

I think there was a lottery winner who had A11 WON.

It's people putting their initials on their 9 year old Range Rover in the belief that it makes them / the car have an air of prestige or status, that's what I'm referring to. And that is, I suspect the reason most people do it. Of course it may have done that in 1980 when they were rare, but not now.

But if it brings them pleasure who cares.

I remember seeing a very nice Porsche with the plate WAS 111S. There was a black screw cover placed between the first two 1's to make it read like an H, therefore WAS H1S. Driven by a very attractive middle aged female. Not wishing to upset any of our more sensitive members, but I immediately assumed that she might have married well and divorced even better .

She'll wish it was still his when she takes it in for a service...

There's a red Ferrari around here with W00OSH or similar which makes me smile...and it's always driven very sensibly

I am good with car registrations for some reason too. Bizarre. First Mini in British racing green was HGS 239F, then a Nissan Cherry GST 634N, MG Midget RDS 656R (wish I had kept that car....loved it) and many more since.

It may be WOO 5H

I tried to buy it at a DVLA auction over 20 years ago but was outbid, I still regret not buying it.

Although it’s not on a Ferrari

 

[glasgowcyclist]

A couple of years ago there was a 4 litre Audi A7 that was driven at ridiculous speeds around my area (all 30mph streets) and when I say ridiculous I mean 70mph at times. The reg number was JU57 GTF so that gives you an idea of the driver's attitude to other people's safety.

Checking it again today I can find no trace via DVLA. It would be nice to think he's had the car seized under a S59 order for anti-social driving and crushed, with the reg number revoked.

No it's longer than that, but I've not seen for a while so it may now be on an Aston

W100 OSH maybe I can't recall exactly

Guy around here that has Weimeraner dogs has V1MUR
