10 years of pestering................

I know some don't approve of personalised registrations but after pestering the DVLA on and off for at least 10 years I finally have on retention.....

JON 150N

And the best bit, isonblade is on age related N prefix.

Just need to complete engine install now.

Well happy n feeling a tad chuffed...

yea, "JON" with 3 random numbers and a letter ain't worth a lot in the scheme of things, just had to be the correct three random numbers and letter for me.

Now JON 7 for example would be a tad expensive.

Possible, its gonna look like a pi55 take for sure, I'm lucky I can just put the plates on correctly spaced etc and it will do just the job I want it to.

Mrs want to put it on tin top but then its hassle maybe every three years the isonblade is going no where plus we already have J 15ON K on there n her name start?s with a J so she can lump it, wot u fink

Nice one, I'm a fan of them.
Though my Mrs is ever so slightly peeved still after being pulled and made to feel like public enemy number 1 a few weeks ago to have it pointed out that her plate was ever so slightly mis-spaced

Am I being stupid as I cant see the problem with

JON 150N

Make the 5 into an S with a dodgy font then you're up for a pull, but that's just a std plate and the natural spacing of an age related plate fits your requirement.

I was after S1MON about 1998, but it went for about £100k, slightly out of range!

fat boy

I used to have the number plate FAT 30Y.
I bought it for a grand and had it on a toyota supra at the time.
I got sick of being pulled by the fuzz,(ooer) and advertised it in the Sunday Times. for offers. and made ten grand proffit
I bet it is worth twice that now though.





Where did that go?

Persistence, I kept getting the standard reply which is pretty much register yourself for auction/release updates until one day I got the magic reply, its been released for ££££.

Guess it will only happen when the right person opens your email, one who will follow it up rather than click "std reply"

Thats how it looked to me anyway.
