Default Help with number plate

I'm thinking about getting a number plate to go with my Subaru and can't decide either one ending WRC or SRT which would you get?

I've changed my mind so many times lol

Go for something the means something to you.

I have initials, year the car was registered and then SUB. Then its personal to me and the car.

That's why I asked. Had it been a WRX then of course xxxx WRX would also have been an option.

There is an advantage in having a non-personal plate, one that relates to the car, and that's the 'transportability' of the number.
Eg A571 WRX (A STi WRX) is worth far more (and adds more resale value) on a car than PAS 571 (Phil A Seventy-eight STi).

That being said, 'car-specific' plates will be harder to come by, and more expensive.

I wanted T20 SUB for mine - wasn't available.
But T20 xxx cost me £250 - an absolute bargain IMO, especially as T T has mentioned, it's car and personal.
When I come to sell I hope a prospective buyer has my initials !

Let us know (within security limits) what you go for.
