Just a couple I can think of for now.
I know someone called Tony Sighe and he had the plate: MR51 GHE.
I regularly see a Fiat with the plate: PV55 CAT.
Have seen a Jag XF with the plate MY** XFS which I first assumed was a garage plate advertising the car as it was around March time and was out for a test drive but I have seen it a fair number of times now so I suspect it is someone who genuinely wanted that on their car
Once saw an old car with H15 EXY but the 5 had been spaced to make it look like HI SEXY
There was an M3 round this way with L4 YME which had been spaced to look like LAY ME but I think this has been moved to another car now as I seem to remember spotting the reg recently
Also used to see a red Audi TT (can't remember the year) with the reg TT** RED..... as if you need to advertise the make and colour of your car.....
My next door neighbour had a 5-series, reg BMW 666.
There used to be a 911 Carrera around here with B1 CEP, but I haven't seen it recently.
Under the old system, the letters OO were Essex. There was a dairy in Colchester, I think, which had all its milk floats with MOO- reg's.
Back in the 60s, buyers of new Mercedes 600s were guaranteed a -600 registration. They'd scour the country for an available mark.
Have seen a few **51 NGH around.

There's a Vauxhall VXR8 at work and I noticed its plate today: W3 NKR
Used to see an RX7 back home with the plate "3VOM". When its in your rear view mirror, it says "MOV3", found it quite funny.
Saw a VW Golf with A8 NEW on it. Would look a lot better on a new Audi data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7

Looked ridiculous and not surprisingly, on a Freelander.
I saw CLA55 1 on a Range Rover Sport in London at the weekend.
Saw LEESON on some 4X4 earlier today, made me chuckle.
