    I saw 'S9ORT' on an E92 M3 at the weekend, which I'm assuming was supposedly meant to be read 'SPORT'.


    As soon as I saw it, I thought of Darkmatter101.

    darkmatter101 currently has PEN 15 on his yaris

    I saw one yesterday, a white BMW with the number ELV 1S on a Lithuanian (LT) plate.

    Strange, as according to Wikipedia this isn't a valid format for a Lithuanian number.

    Edit: it may have been Latvian (LV) which does allow personalised plates

    Was it a Dinky or a Corgi?

    There are a couple round our way, S1NHA and MR 51 NHA with appropriate tweaks to the latter.


    Some one has RU 55 POT which has been on a few cars latest is a Jag.


    Some are really clever such A 12 DOZ on an egg wholesaler van.

    Londoners may well know of Pimlico Plumbers who disguise the age of their many vans with plates like B4SIN and LO02OLD.
    I need to think of something new here...
