The ones that are the most farked are the people who put plates on that say the model of the car

EG PRADO on a Prado etc

Oh Oh just remembered plates that sh!t me even more, misspelt model names on the car.

One I have seen, PARADO cos the wanker couldn't get the PRADO plates cos come other cool maller already had them :x :x

i like clever plates, not hard ones, that only the owner can make out. i also dont like overtly bragging plates, like "tuffest" or "fastest" etc etc. there is always some one faster, tuffer , higher, lower etc than you.

I like the ones that say something like SUZI23 which means there are probably at least 22 other SUZIs out there with personalised number plates :D

i recon someone may give me some $$$$$ seeing is how it is up there with XTREME mine r HYBRID picked em due to the amount of different parts on the ol girl that werent hilux parts , fitting i thought ;)

Well most people know me by my rego plate these days.

I have the obvious TJJEEP, which I know people have said they don't like the model etc. It goes further with my Dad having ZJJEEP on his Grand, so when we go out you certainly know we are together. :)

exactly something like your name or type of car is stupid. "oh hang on i forgot my name i'll just check my numberplate"

but petes SWAMPA is a very good one if you've given your truck a name then thats just cute to put it o the plate.

NUMBER PLATES

Post by big38l »

only problem with em is that its easy for the cops to remember em, so if you've been mouthing off about running 38in swampers or whatever on the road, and ya numberplate is recognisable, it makes it that much easier for the cop to pick ya

meh :roll: What people put on their cars is up to them but I do shake my head at ones that just don't make sense :?

IMO the $ are better put toward mods, specially here in QLD where PPQ want an a$$ rap!n........ and that's just a deposit :shock:

i saw a mitsubishi 4x4 van once with BED 469 as the plates,i thought it suited it quite well. but i think that most of the plates out there are overated and a waste of money.
also in n.s.w now there is a yearly charge on all custom plates now. if you already have custom plates then there is no new charges.
