If you intend to bid for it yourself, maybe you shouldn't have started this post. In my opinion the more people that know about it, the more bids there's likely to be. Of course, it would be better if it went to a scoobynetter, who would obviously appreciate it much more than a white van man.
I missed out at the last auction, I tried to bid for 300 WRX.

I also put in a written bid for 300 WRX at the last auction. I believe it went for £1600.

I can understand the WRX part but why are people so obsessed about the 555 thing still? It was only a cig sponsers of the team a few years ago now? On an old series Mcrae i could understand.

Flat 4X4 can you not get that plate sold for £750?
Too many stupid initial plates have now been released and swamped the market.

Sti Wanna Subaru, what do you mean 'It was only a cig sponsers of the team a few years ago now?', they still sponser the team now! thats whey some of the rally cars have SSS in the number plates.

WRX Youngster, I stand corrected mate. I thought that they had stopped the full sponsorship of the Impreza WRC a few years back but because the Impreza was known with the bold Yellow 555's they replaced them with the 3 slashes, swoops or what every you would call them.

I think 555 is back, look at the WRC 2003 thread.
