Personalised no plates......there are some really nice/good ones but the majority I see now are "the leftovers/dregs" that owners illegally space letters/numbers in some ludicrously pathetic attempt to give themselves some "status" or highlight their ethnicity( eg near me I8(S?) LAM) :eek
I can see the point of putting a cheap Northern Irish plate on to avoid the 6 monthly age-related nonsense-but I suppose it keeps some people employed?
When they introduced the new system in Sept 2001 (51) they also brought in a standard font. In my understanding all these jiggled around plates should be MOT failures as it could be argued that this is an attempt to confuse the scanning cameras.
Its all ego isnt it & it backfires because most sane people think "What a Tosser!"
