They seem to make a lot of money for what they are.
Always thought it was just posers that would have such a thing.
What do others think ?

If it makes someone happy, why not?
As a dairy farmer, the best plate I’ve seen was at the Dairy Event at the NEC, “MOO 2 MLK”.

Would not be top of my list of priorities.

Don't need to spend that much to get one that's eye catching and a genuine business asset - the two you have there would fall into the vanity category rather than that. Plenty TUP plates on sheep breeders, HAY on fodder lorries etc. that probably cost a couple of hundred at most and can hide the age of the vehicle (newer or younger, according to the desires of the owner).

Surprised some of those got through DVLA though, and strong chance they will attract police attention if the owner misaligns the letters to make it read different from intended.

The only one I want is W1ELD

It’s the name of the village I live in. It’s currently owned by the cricket club President and retired neighbouring farmer. He has promised as I’m club captain I can buy it off him when he gets too old to drive

They're great, if you want everyone to know where you've been, the local scum bag to remember which house is now empty as you pull up in the supermarket or pub carpark or Officer Dibble to have spotted it in a pub carpark 5 minutes earlier (no, I don't condone drink driving, but while plod "has a word" it give the scumbag an extra few minutes in your house).
Fine on a sign written vehicle I suppose.

I bought SP67YER to go on my new Bateman a few years back.

DVLA wouldn’t let me put it on a agricultural vehicle!

Sad times.

There’s a perfect one on there for one of TFF’s regular posters @Bossfarmer

i hate personalised reg numbers with venom, alot just read rubbish owned by 10 bob millionaires.

I'm not saying the plate I'd like or Farmplates might get the price inflated on the current Sampson's auction !

No you can't put them on ag vehicles which is a shame as I thought it might make quads look older to the scumbags

Largely I'd agree

I bought one with one on and never got it changed . Folks often compliment me how tidy my Landie is

You havent got JP1 already?

 

[john432]

Just something for people who think they are better than others. Our Welsh term for them is "yn llawn gwynt" full of wind.

No bought a Landie with an old looking reg and @eulb spotted it straight away

That plate belonged on a black and gold Esprit owned by John Player cigarettes when I was a kid

YE5 1 MOO wonder price tag on that

I've got MOO 36V - had it for 25 years.


Open to offers

 

[Cowmansam]

Know a lad with cow on his plate doesn’t even have cows or like them drives tractors

 

[Still Farming]

F U A ll is a good one

We’ve got an ag related one on our car which seems to make everyone smile.

Not putting it on here though.
