this whole number plate thing is such a rip off in the UK , in Denmark Sweden and of course the good old us of a you can get what you want , in sweden it costs 5,000-SEK at 15 to the £ thats £333- for what you want up to six letters or numbers in Denmark its up to 9 i think ,of your choice , its funny not many people bother with it.

The guy who had A5 TON was on TV a couple of years ago on top gear or something....The funny thing was he didn't have an Aston at the time he had the plate on a Jag if I can remeber correctly.
May I am just getting confused.....Time for my pills.
It has been on Top Gear since on an Aston. He reckoned he had paid £85,000 for it though. End of last year I think it was, but definitely on an Aston.

Was owned by Steve Parish and Derek Warwick at different times. Saw it on Steve Parishes Merc at Snetterton several years ago.

quote:Don't count on that .. when Kelvin McKenzie was the editor of the Sun, someone in the PR department bought SUN1 for his chauffeur driven car... Not known for his temperence, he went completely postal: "Are you f***ing stupid? I'm not having that on my car!!!"
SKY 1 - used to see it on an old Pug 205 round Leatherhead but not recently. Murdoch and his merry men would presumably pay pretty much whatever asked.
Seemingly he wouldn't want the man in the street knowing who he was...
The plate has been on one of their Escort vans ever since.
An uncle of a friend of mine Had a GT40, reg no GT40 in the seventies,some of you may remember it from a Woolwich building society advert back then, at the time the car was worth 40k and the plate was worth 60k.
I was lucky enough to get a ride in it, and all the intelligent questions I had lined up came out as gobbledygook during the ride due to my cheshire cat grin..Fond Memories
