Personalised Plates

[paradise city]

I thought vigilante was almost exactly the right word. Hunting down motorists who use the phone while driving and reporting them to the police due to a sense of civic duty. It's only different from those who track down and report paedophiles, hebephiles and ephebophiles by scale of the offense.

vigilante
/ˌvɪdʒɪˈlanti/

noun
a member of a self-appointed group of citizens who undertake law enforcement in their community without legal authority, typically because the legal agencies are thought to be inadequate.

He is using the online reporting system set up by the Met. The police actively encourage members of the public to upload footage of drivers who break the law. He works closely with the police and has their full support.
He is not enforcing the law, only the police and courts can do that.
Show me one instance in any of his videos where he breaks the law himself. So, no, he is not a vigilante.

Find out about vehicle registration numbers and number plates (INF104)

Information on registration numbers and number plates.

www.gov.uk

Some interesting things in here that I didn't know eg the space between the age identifier and the random letters must be 30mm

Best I've seen was on a Chanel Delivery Van in London some time ago - "N0 5"

 

[Borris]

Many years ago I saw the registration number UPL1F.

It was on a Bristol

Very Cool Van?

I was behind an abattoir truck last week, the reg made me chuckle. D10 COW, i think the zero was slightly doctored to DID COW as in dead cow.

Never had a massive desire for one, but with ‘Ted’ as a name I was always aware I could get one to suit with ease. Wasn’t high on the list though.

Spotted this a while ago and took a shine to it.
Birthday/Valentine’s present made it happen!

Non legal show plate in photo, but legal road plates purchased and will be fitted when on the road.


Does it make the van go faster? No.
Does it make the van handle better? No.
Does it help me sleep better in the van? No.
Do I like it and does it make me smile? Yes.

I have my 4x4 VWC plate still works on club joker. View attachment 55016

Have you recently put the Union Jack version on?

 

[GrahamB]

None here.
Think they are a bit chavvy if I’m honest.

Take cover...

Not necessarily. Mine has sentimental value from my years of tearing up the tarmac on Yamaha R1’s

At their prices, they could afford it.

Nope, been on since I got van.
Front plate fell off in flood water, so decided to go plain just haven't replaced rear yet.

To keep the cost down there are stickers with the union jack on that cover the EU-GB part.

Found them after stocking up on GB Oval type. An example>

My favourite colour for a California. I tear up and down on an MT09. At 70+ years, me not the bike, I am happy with that.

Just had a look at the DVLA auction site and found this starting at £250. The auction begins on the 24th if anyone is interested!

I'm sure someone will have posted this before but today I saw 600 GC. Albeit on a Masterati suv crossover type thing.

 

[Elmo3]

Saw a Range Rover Sport recently, PYK1E. Should have been towing a Hobby.

Probably stands for 600 Giant Chicken.
Or something similar…

Van plus our initials

I had a Williams 2 in 94, best car I’ve ever had. Had several GTI’s, TT’s, Clio 200, Golf R and a few other things and this is the closest I’ve come to that Williams. Absolutely love stealing this from the missus, much to her disgust....

I saw a golf R32 with R S70LEN reg with 4D plate too.

 

[Go Zizzz]

We've never been a fan of "personalised" plates but we couldn't resist this bit of frippery during our interminable wait for our van.

I had to buy a plate to cover up how new the Cali is…

 

[The Pox]

I had mine made specially. It lives on the dash. Worth a fortune Not sure about the MOT though!!
