Go for it! I presume your car is August 96 or newer? - otherwise you can't put it on. Remember it will cost £80 each time you transfer it between cars or more if you put it on retention.

Cheers,

Ian.

yep...do it. well spotted.
The typeface where the 4 really looks like an 'A' (the horizontal bit of the '4' doesnt stick out from vertical bit - you know what I mean ) was made legal a while back i think..

if it is your surname then buy it for sure
it is very obviously plante.

My surname is MESSULAM and I have M555ULM, I will be keeping it forever as it is the best plate for me, so long as you arent buying it for investment.

Plate looks good, go for it.

James - are you sure you're not including the retention fee of £25 in that £105?

I prefer PL4NTE

Put it this way....you drive a SERIOUS car.... you want a SERIOUS number plate.

Having C33 YA, well....what next? On a Mission Sticker? One of those "Passion Grace and Serious Bass" things?

Or maybe I have my head up my a$$?
I look at it this way.....what plate would your subaru dealer rather see on there?

Neil - go for P14NTE.

OK groovers - how about this one for me:

L5D DW - has nothing to do with my initials (SNP), but refers to my Scoobynet user name

Only £250 (but ignore the drugs reference for now )

DW
