L66TEY Posted November 12, 2020 Posted November 12, 2020 "MY70HYA" = "MY7 OH YA"Appreciate not everyone is a fan of private plates, but thought someone might be interested in this registration which is presently for sale on the DVLA website for £399. There's actually a few MY7 plates on there;MY7 0K YAMY7 0LDYMY7 0GLEMY7 0 YESMY7 0H NOMY7 0NLYMY7 0 BYEMY7 0RCA
SM25T Posted November 13, 2020 Posted November 13, 2020 But of course these can only be used on a new car .... they can't be used to make an older car look new.
ian.pursglove Posted November 13, 2020 Posted November 13, 2020 And have to be properly spaced (not like those above)
L66TEY Posted November 13, 2020 Author Posted November 13, 2020 Yes, valid point. Perhaps just me hoping there are some L7C members who'll be buying/building a Caterham with a "70" plate and putting one of these on it.
L66TEY Posted November 13, 2020 Author Posted November 13, 2020 But of course ;)But I do wonder whether a would simply appreciate this along with the car and let it go. And if one was to be caught on a speed camera , I'm confident they'd figure out the registration.
ian.pursglove Posted November 13, 2020 Posted November 13, 2020 Mine has just got through IVA, paperwork is with DVLA and my wife bought me a plate for it - it ends my initials reversed and ending 7 CAT, but I know the traffic guys at my station will HORT me if I play with the spacings. As such I will run it looking older then it is but it still works for me.
L66TEY Posted November 14, 2020 Author Posted November 14, 2020 Hi Ian,Have I got this right your reg will be "P17 CAT"Surely that's worth a "show plate" of " PI 7 CAT" just to see whether your colleagues will throw a HORT your way, at least you'd have a relatively reasonable excuse of "just checking you know the regs" Ive presently got "L66TEY" on my 2010 R300, with black plates and silver letters - guess it's just a matter of time before I get pulled and receive a HORT (and a telling off).
ian.pursglove Posted November 14, 2020 Posted November 14, 2020 No, I have a middle name so it is PR17 CAT - the problem with my workplace is that the white hatted mob just like to demonstrate they know the rules at times - you should see them in the HGV cab - so pious it is frightening!
garybee Posted November 14, 2020 Posted November 14, 2020 I wouldn't mention it unless it had already been brought up... It is worth noting that there is currently a bill in parliament to change the penalty for illegal plates from a minor fine to a big fine with points on licence. Nobody opposed it at the first reading.
SM25T Posted November 14, 2020 Posted November 14, 2020 Yet the DVLA encourage sales of interesting registrations !
