'GT03 XXX' type number plates on GT3's - Cool or Naff?

[mollytherocker]

I am not usually a fan of private plates but would be interested in your views on these style plates. Sportandclassic has one on his Mk2 996 GT3 and I think it looks great.

So is it cool or naff?

PS - Not saying yet why I am asking!!

Cool. Simples!

[s_mcneil]

There is/was 'GT03 CUB' on an all black MKII CS which looked great, hopefully the new owner kept that.

[Magic919]

Cool if it's on a GT3.

[khushy]

cool - but I am a CHAV!

This is a question which polarises views. I happen to dislike personalised numberplates as I consider them to be vulgar displays of self-importance.

But some would say this answer amounts to something very similar

Besides, on a GT3 - exactly what does the numberplate add to the car? Is it not loud or special enough for you already?

I know a guy with GT03TED on his GT3RS and he's actually called Dave.

What do you expect me to say??

There was GT03 WOW spotted by a cyclist at the weekend.


I don't think he liked it much though

Come on! Have you gone & got one or what?!

Eta-me personally, I think they're naff, I mean the cars not called a gto3 is it?

I don't mind snidey plates-just look at my cars in fact I love them! But it's got to look correct-

I'd rather have a plate such as XGT 310Y & space it X GT3 OY
it's not gonna be expensive is it?

of course they are cool...but then again, I may be slightly biased and a complete chav

Yep been looking for one myself.

99.99% of the road going public have no idea what a gt3 is so I don't think it can really be construed as ostentatious.

Unfortunatley, all combos of my name have gone along with all the other 3 letter combos I fancied tacking on the end.

If a plate isn't listed for sale on the dvla website and hpicheck reveals its not attached to a car, is there anyway of finding out who owns a plate?

So why put one on the car- in case you forget it's a gt3?

[RatBoy M3CSL]

.. Well I like mine lots..

[aby76]

Personally, I think all personalised plates Are a bit naff - am sure phooey posted a link to a 911 based plate up for £80000!! A fool and his money.........

very helpfull the old dvla, if it's never been assigned they'll let you know & put it in the next auction for you-they're putting one up for me next time as I wanted a none dating plate for the girlfriends bug

[anniesdad]

I care not whether my car makes me look cool or a total knob....if you saw me or know me you'll know I'm certainly not cool.

I bought my plate (see profile) as I think they suit the cars. I was probably bored one day and had a look on DVLA's site as I'm not bothered about private plates either. It cost me the princely sum of £240.00 all in and it has my children's initials A, M and O on it.

Oh and it also makes the car go like a bullet..

I'd never do that.
