Personalised number plates..?

[alreadypacked]

I'd imagine the plate is worth about £250k. The car was £150k

Didn't answer the question, so I'm guessing no.

My rule of thumb: Don't trust anyone with a car brand preference.

I disagree: it depends on the reason for the brand preference I like VW as they (in my experience) are well built & reliable, yes those who select based on a perceived “kudos” are probably..…. (OK can’t think of a nice term here so insert your own)

I like Jags because they are quiet, roomy on the inside, and have some poke to get one out of scrapes should the need arise.

But I freely admit mine has a book value of £3K, which is peanuts. So it's not as if I'm trying to flaunt wealth or something.

My rule of thumb: Don't trust anyone with a car brand preference.
Anyone who has the personality flaw that would allow them to think that a particular brand gives them kudos, usually has the personality flaw that would allow them to stitch you up. I have seen it happen to other people.

My rule of thumb, don't trust anyone who comes up with rules of thumbs based on other peoples preferences. They tend to have weak ego's and constantly need to find ways of belittling other peoples choices.

Personally I no longer think a BMW on its own is necessarily a bad thing, add a personalised number plate and the sum of wankiness is much greater than the parts.

Old Jag XK8's with PN's are the pinnacle of c**tness if you ask me.

My favourite personalised plate was on a Jag, B16 CAT.

In New Zealand you can have anything you like as a personalised plate as long as it's up to 6 letters or numbers long. Somehow "BOLL1X" passed the swear filter at the LMVD and was last seen driving around Wellington.

They are called vanity plates in the US which is what they are.
I know a bloke who has one. He has a brand new Mazda 6 so he isn't trying to make it look newer. He is a nice bloke but a terrible dangerous aggresive driver who has been banned for speeding in the past.
I would never stoop so low as to spend cash on one.

Never one to let a customer pass you by eh?
