Personal Plates

We bought our personalised plate for the dog! Interestingly, we had a conversation with the owner of a historic property who was very interested in buying our plate, because it was much better than his existing one! The dog said no. 😂

Michelle works there.
Colleague parking is usually as far away from the door as possible, so plenty spaces when I go remind her she has a husband.🤭

Sorry is anyone forcing you to get one?

We have one for each car, it's our initials and surname letter, so we have AB02CDE & AB03CDE (not those actual letters) they look quite good when parked on the same pitch.
Interestingly we found the old plate that was just given when we bought the car was worth £500 , so we took that off and kept it (in certificate)

well i remember in the 60's in the Paul Raymond era, there was a nice young lady, Fiona, used to drive around Soho in a very flash car with the plate FU2 , now that might just boost my ego, which i think a lot of this is, but as i am not likely to find or be able to afford such a plate i will not be buying one

Ours at the dealers but this number is now on a certificate and we have a different one.

Looks like our local dealer, Jill.
And, no, ours is not a personal number plate. No way would I ever have chosen anything containing the letters "MU"😱

Update.
A week ago the dealer re registered my old car back to me.
Yesterday I received the V5 for a car I dont have!
I tried then to retain the plate online, DVLA system refused.
Went on DVLA web chat, agent told me to throw it back to dealer nothing I could do.
Email sent to dealer Grrrrr.😡
.....
Yesterday sat and thought about how the DVLA software worked. Checked online the car was insured, and had MOT, tick tick.👍
So I taxed it. I car I wont ever drive.
Today the car shows as valid road fund, had another go at retaining the plate, it's only gone and worked!
Didn't waste anytime I transferred it onto current motor!
What a performance. 💃🤯😁
This modern age, when it goes wrong it seriously goes wrong!
Oh and my credit card was declined, that's to be sorted next. Arghhhhhh.

My father bought a car just before the last war, and transfered the number to the other cars that he subsequently owned. I have continued the tradition, and my son is desperate to take over when I pop my clogs.

Hate to be a kill joy,
Those plates pictured are probably if not definitely fake. Dicko may ne real..
DVLA dont allow any plate on the road that can be made to look like thoss, theres a whole list on the internet somewhere.
Best one I saw was years ago on my dentist's Jag, in fact I'm going look and see what its on now.

Given how easy it is to set up the transfer online I am not sure how this problem arose. I had a vehicle specific plate on my Audi A2 which I sold (AT02TWO) and on my Astra 888 many years ago had VXL888R. My wife has a plate bought as a present by her son and he has a plate which almost spells his surname. That plate was transferred between Monday and Thursday this week from his old to new car by the dealer, no hassle. I once saw B16 NOB on a Dodge Viper, presumably he didn’t.
