Just after a few opinions really. My name is Matthew K. The closest number plate I can find to this on newreg.co.uk is M2 TTK.
If I spaced it M2TT K would this look like MATT K ?

All and any opinions appreciated !



Matt K

Nope. TBH if you're going to spell a name, you have to do it properly. The only ones I would countenance would be:
M4TT K
or
M8TT K

Can you find any others that are M4TT or M8TT with a different letter at the end (e.g. M4TTX) or have they all gone?

IMHO, if you can get one that looks 'right' from the DVLA all well and good. If you can't, then either (a) pay an auction site lots of money for a decent one or (b) don't bother.

My wife's name is TAHIRA and I managed to get T8HRA for her. But all the decent C4RL or C8RL ones have gone -- even the K4RL and K8RLs so I'm not going to bother.

Looks ok dont bother with newreg its available from dvla for £250 inc vat and transfer fee.

All the good M4TT 's have gone unfortunately. Its on at newreg for £244.

Thanks for your opinions, keep em coming...!

Would you not incur the displeasure of the boys in blue for incorrectly spacing the letters? This could be a most heinous turn of events.

carl

How about M11TT? It's better than M2TT IMHO.

Or K<number> MAT?

Or K 111ATT
(try to make an M out of 111, but I think this is getting a bit marginal).

You would look like you were trying too hard !

Still, pretty fly for a white guy.

Matthew K (hmmm)

How about MKE11Y? (spaced M KE11Y)

I think that ones already taken Dracoro

OJ..

Karlos Fandango

Newsflash!!! I wonder what name the number plate below could be???



I don't think its too difficult to work it out. If a more obvious number that looked like a letter A was available then I would have gone for it. But, for £250 all in I don't think you can go wrong. Anyway, it was a present from my wife so all in all I'm really chuffed.

If you want to see what a plate looks like try www.gtgraphix.co.uk (something like that) and go to the plate builder.

newreg will be £244 + everything else
DVLA will be £250 all in

carl

Yes, but the problem is the C*RL ones are £399 (some of them are £999)

Wouldn't mind something that's not exactly right for 250 quid, but for 400 quid it's a different matter.

Stevie

Dracaro,

I know the guy who has M KE11Y, 'tis on a new E
Class. His cousin has C KE11Y on his S!!

Karlos Fandango

Well, if you will have these common names

There's a guy 'round my way with an RS4 reg: R55 FOR Can't help feeling a twinge of envy when I see him.... especially when he leaves me in his dust as happened recently

Thanks Karlos

a 2 is not an A - an S if you want but not an A, it makes you look desperate to have your name on your car

K2RL - how sad is that

Terzo 333

workshy - care to explain why "K2RL" is "sad" ?

Karlos Fandango

RIGHT, Workshy, I'm sending the missus round!!

Look at it like this:
If you spell a word wrong, by for example missing a letter or putting the wrong letter- people still know what the word is.

My rule for plates is that one number/letter can be changed or left to interpretation.Start messing with two and it starts to look a bit poo.

For example on my plate i have a 6 instead of an N- now a 6 doesnt look like an N unless you severely mess with the font which i have not done.
But because of the letters around it (all the others are the actual letters that make up my name,) and the spacing of it- its obvious what it says.
When i got it all the other combinations were gone and i wanted it with my surname initial at the end.

Hell, if the kids in my class can work it out (they are ten) then its not that unobvious.

K2RL is even more obvious when spaced like the pic of the lotus.


Personally i think M2TT K looks wicked- and i would buy it if i were you- especially as it has your end initial also.

If you were to fiddle with the letter font it would look desperate IMHO and like you were trying too hard.

Go for it.

P.s buy it from the DVLA (www.dvla-som.co.uk) as the newreg price is £244 plus VAT plus transfer and they take ages. DVLA price is all inclusive.

if u use the typeface 'handel gothic' and put a black screw cap between the bottom tail of the '2' and the top of it u can make it look like a 'a' SORTED

Patt@firstime

Matt,

I tried to buy M2TT F a little while ago-but missed out go for it looks really good. My name is Matt Fox and I've got on mine M4T FX, its not perfect but for the price I paid I love it.

2 would look like an A!
On my plate i have a 9 as a B and lucky for me the place where the screw ended up it looks like a B and everyone says it looks good. I would go for it and forget all the n00bs saying other wise.
