Saw one in Belfast last week that I recognised from my school days in N. Ireland.

 

AZ 1

 

Used to belong to my Geography teacher who had it on his Saab. Now on a Merc C class - probably his son. AtoZ maps wanted it badly in the 70's and offered him about 25k for it back then. (Which was stupid money for a plate back then!)

The best I have ever seen are these, on an Aston Martin and a Bentley parked next to each other outside a house in Chelsea by the Thames:

 

2 B

 

NOT 2 B

 

Jesus!

I saw this Bentely today on the M4 towards London. Actually it's 28E (2 BE) I've also seen it parked next in the garage next to the aston near battersea bridge.

Saw two cars parked outside a 'gentlemen's club' down here a couple of years ago. Two TVR's, WWW1 and WWW2. Was in the peak of the dot com boom

 

Also seen XXX 666 and X666 XXX on a couple of big mercs here. I'm thinking they're into the adult entertainment industry.

A guy local to me has on his civic M1KHA , Mikha Hakkinen had been in touch in the mid ninetys and offered a certain amount for it , the guy said come back when your world champ and you can have it for 50k so he did and the lad refused to sell it :D

 

I believe the guy has now split from his wife and she got the civic and still has the plates .

A while back I saw an Audi A8 near where I live with just the number 8 on the reg plate and I've seen an old Aston Martin DB5 in the town where I work with the plate A5 TON.

 

I saw that on a TV programme a few years back and it was bought for £150,000 originally on a V8 Vantage!

 

A good one i also have seen was L4RGE on a Ferarri 355 thought that looked rather sweet!!
