Re: Ebay number plate

Not as obscure as some but it amazes me the way they feel obliged to spell out what it means.

Re: Ebay number plate

The guy's obviously a tosser; "A COBRAS" doesn't even make any sense.

My favourite Cobra plate would have to be AC 427 which I saw on a Golf GTI quite a few years back in Devon. Others I have enjoyed include:

XJV 120K re-spaced to read XJ V12 OK

and

130 LOX re-spaced to read BOLOX

Here in NZ you can pay for a personal plate and choose any 6 letters/digits you like and space them however you like too so fancy plates are so common that I don't bother with one.

My dentist has: FANG DR !

Re: Ebay number plate

I saw COB 16V for sale once, and quite liked that idea, accurate in the case of mine. Thought it could provoke too many young bucks into thinking, 'Hey, it's only a 16V like mine, I'll take him on' - but I confess, there's part of me that sometimes wants that to happen as well. :drive:
