I bought an MR 2 toyota about 30 years ago that was owned by a Kate Mee.she had the plate that she kept that was K8MEE.
a favourite of mine was on an American car and I think they can chose their own numbers but I stand to be corrected,anyway it was L1T1G8R.very appropriate fir a lawyer

I think Steve Parish (Bike/lorry racer) got that one first through DVLA
Close Neighbour got HU60 N JO
Had RAD10 4 behind me on Chiswick round about a very long time ago and there was 1ACS at Entrance to sprays and sprayers the first year IACS was about.
I would like CH I CKS i suppose it would need to be C81CKS
I’ve seen a PU11ETS about a few times, I guess the driver has an interest in poultry

Has anyone been swayed to buy a vehicle because of the reg. no ?
I went to look at a Jeep some years ago and the first thing I saw were my initials on the plate which tempted me. The number of warning lights on the dashboard put me off.

One of my neighbours bought a lime green cortina just for the plates, transferred them over to his car. A few months later he had a decorator working for him who was going through a bit of a hard time with a divorce and was without transport so he gave him the cortina and thought no more about it.
One morning he had a knock on the door whilst he was having breakfast and it was two policemen who asked him if he was the legal owner of the cortina because it had been used in a bank raid. My neighbour said he invited the policemen in, gave them breakfast and proceeded to tell them his life story. He said that when their eyes were starting to glaze over he knew he was getting somewhere.

A relative was tasked with getting a car back on the road that his grandfather bought because of the number. They had to get another engine for it and get it through an MOT to get the number.
