personalised number plates
A bargain for someone who is a bit of a magician...…...Paul Daniels widow has been persuaded to part with his personalized number plate he bought 30 years ago, with the registration MAGIC.
Only downside,,, the 150,000 pound price tag!!!!!!!!!! You know you're gonna like it( not a lot, not a lot). Steve.

Originally an Ayrshire registration AG, CS and SD were the three registrations but for some reason we lost the AG ones and got SJ
All those original JAG plates came from Ayrshire. JAG 75 is owned by a local businessman and a simmilar plate MAG 1G was owned by a former motor dealer in Kilmarnock. I still see it occasionally running about locally. |

Barry McGuigan used to be seen driving around Belfast, in a red Espirit occasionally with BOX 1T.
But as MGZ is now out in Belfast, get yourself a ZS/ZR/ZT that has been registered in Northern Ireland and re register it MGZ

I think he must have had it longer than 30 yrs, it was on his Ferrari 308 when he came to my sixth form in 1987!! Also saw it in the late 90’s when I ended up stationary on the M4 in rush hour and he was in the lane next to me in his Roller !

The most memorable plate I ever saw was in the early 1970’s on a yellow E type ... FU 2.

You get ripped off for supposed numberplate exclusivity in UK. Still think it looks stupidly naff when you see people relying on 3's or 5's to resemble E's and S's etc. It is starting to creep in here too and hate it. Best clever one i have seen here is "BAA BAA" and seen on a black Jeep, as well as "INCEY WINCEY" on an Alfa Spider. We still get the boy racers and their 2KWIK4U'S and UNVME's etc. but there are plonkers everwyhere you go. Last edited by Roker; 7th March 2019 at 05:09.. |

My old boss was obsessed with getting personal plates, spending what I heard was a 6 figure sum for 1ia. Ia being his initials. His money though and he did work for what he's got, so fair play to him. Sent from my SM-A600FN using Tapatalk

Many years ago, when I worked as an insurance broker, one of our customers bought himself 12 AXE for his Jag.
We couldn't work out what relevance it had to him, the car, his business - anything. He told us it was because he had a one foot chopper
