Private number plates

Postby chris » Mon Jan 10, 2005 9:05 pm

Just wondered who had put a private plate on their car, or if everyone had left their 04/54 plate on. :)

I'd like to try one with it first, to me the standard shift is fine, if it had less travel i'd probably never select the right gear! :lol:

I saw a WR with the plate WR 111 in Harrogate a couple of days ago. It had a bint driving and I was going the other way so I couldn't stop her and give her the website.

I'm confused? Most people hide there plates when they show their cars... Now you are all telling us your plates. Am I missing something?

I can't see the reason in hiding your plate as hundreds of people each day can see it as your driving along and lets face it we get private plates for people to notice anyway or there would be no point!... :roll:
