Personalised number plates...
mark you out as a collossal cunt from the word go. Speshly if it's just a random number and your initials. Ok it's your car, we get that. The fact that you're driving it gives me a bit of a clue.

I could be prejudiced because I once dated a bloke with a personalised number plate and the nancy boy still lived at home with his parents. The whole family had personal plates. All cunts.

My ex boss had one and he was a cunt too. Jimmy Saville too. I rest my case.

Yep
couldn't agree more. I'd put this up there with women who put those 'Babe on Board' sticker things in their motors. Nine times out of ten the women you see getting into these cars look like the fucking swamp thing. False advertising, I'd say.

I think that's quite cool.

edit: and there was a merc parked outside my flat the other night with the reg MY 61TCH. how can you not laugh at that?!

We'll have to wait 21 more years for MY81TCH.
But I suppose the humourless fucks in the DVLA will ban it.

Couldn't agree more
Sticking the bolt end in unusual places so that the plate reads "SHIT" instead of "SIIIT" for example. Using strange fonts.
Unless you have a really good one, think Paul Daniels still has "MAG1C" which is kind of cool, you'll end up looking like a pompous twat who couldn't afford a really good one.

DVLA have no sense of Humour
so plates like P155 OFF have never been issued

WHich is a shame

I've seen presumptuous web sites where they use numbers for letters. Losers.

Strange fonts
Gits who have their number plate done up in Comic Sans "because then the speed cameras can't get you". Idiots. I have the perfect way to avoid all speeding tickets - I don't speed (not if the official limit is 60 or less, anyway).

Actually my sister's ex had a Golf GTi, and he put the stickers on the back windscreen so they said "GiT".

Maybe it's cos they're pricey in Britain and convey a sense of arrogance.
In the States you can get one for $30.

Still wouldn't fork out for one though.
