Title: Internet related car numbers. Post by: Jet Cash on December 29, 2018, 09:33:46 AM In the UK, we have a mix of numbers and letters to create a registration identity for motor vehicles. Most of the registrations are just a jumble of unrelated characters, but some of them appear to be meaningful words. This is one that I saw in the car park of the Morrisons supermarket. Have you seen some interesting numbers in your country?

I haven't seen a personalised number plate although I feel like if you're not looking, you're probably not going to find one. Title: Re: Internet related car numbers. Post by: Jet Cash on December 29, 2018, 11:22:13 AM I actually spoke to the owner, and he gave me permission. He was in a bit of a rush though, so I didn't manage to find out why he thought of himself as a webbie. I may have missed out there. Maybe he was an early Bitcoin adopter. He is proud of his car and number plate, and I want it, but I've got no chance of getting it. :)

It could be a nickname or related to a surname also but if not, there might have been a good story there. Title: Re: Internet related car numbers.

K1NGS was sold to an Arab for about £240,000 a few years ago. My friend owned BOR1S on a Jag XJS, and sold the combo for £10,000. I think he should have got more for it. The Jag wasn't special, so wasn't worth much. Title: Re: Internet related car numbers. Post by: jackg on December 29, 2018, 01:00:22 PM https://absolutereg.co.uk/search?term=jetcash&type=super
<£10000 Title: Re: Internet related car numbers. Post by: CristianOff on December 29, 2018, 05:21:36 PM A personalized number is nice to have, especially since it can go up in value.
My very rich friend had on his new Range Rover something like mr hhh. I know a lot of immigrants who use obscene words from their country on personalized British plates ;D Title: Re: Internet related car numbers. Post by: puffy smoke on December 29, 2018, 06:22:23 PM The government body that oversees car registrations in my neck of the woods recently introduced personalized license plates. Even though the fees are quite reasonable $250 up front and a $35 yearly additional fee tacked on I would have thought more people would buy these type of plates. I have only seen a handful so far. I guess the majority just wants to blend in. Like most, I probably won't be rocking the boat either. Long live anonymity.
