I saw one just the other day D8UG D with the '8' haveing a screw in the right place to make it look like an 'R' .... Funny thing was the car was being searced by the police when I drove past. Black Land Rover Discovery with black tinted glass. Can't say I was surprised he got pulled!
The best ones i know about were owned by Scottish motor tycoon Ian Skelly back in the 80's, when he had the largest VW/Audi franchise in Europe.
He had AUD 1 and VW 1, and i used to see the former on the road from time to time.
Naturally it did not have the correct spacing between D and 1.
Funnily enough, I swear I saw a BMW once in Liverpool with "BMW" as the reg and I assumed it was someone like Ian Skelly driving (or being driven in) it. Saw the infamous DEGSY driving round there a few times too but couldn't care less about that one.
Be asking for trouble, that.
Like the bloke along the road, who has ** TAX.
Could be a taxi driver (no taxi plate though), but can't help assuming he's a tax inspector.
In which case, I wouldn't go advertising it.
I'm usually good with these, but I'm struggling with this one.
Only thing I can come up with is "Y 5AVE", as in 'WHY SAVE'?
Is that what you mean by apt?
