Hi,

Just wondered what percentage of Lexus folk are going for a chosen reg' to finish off their car (or maybe you aren't fussed).

Nige

personalised for me....

Its the car I am interested in and not the number. The only thing with plates is that I like to see them in first class condition not faded or with water marks.
Put me down as ' not fussed'

company vans - personalised
lexus - lexus related ( i luv my lexus too ?? )
previous cars - personalised


a good way to disguise the year of your car ,unless its new

Mine will be personalised, when I get it.

Put me down as a personalised.

Birthday and name

Lexus-Related for me

Mine contains a bit of both

Car related....till i find a decent personalised

Not a bad way to make the car noticed, without adding to your insurance

Because my damn parents did not give me a middle name it makes it kind of pricey when looking at plates with just JW on them. Therefore, I either have to give myself a middle name for the sakes of finding a registration plate that doesn't cost more than the car or try and find one on a different theme. I'm a bit reluctant to get anything Lexus or GS300 related cos I like the idea of taking my plate with me when this car eventually goes to it's next lucky owner. While on holiday in Cornwall a few years ago, I spotted a few Germans looking a bit lost in guess what..............a PEUGEOT 106?????? Their registration would have suited me down to the ground, it was G0 somenumbers JW. Is there a law to stop you having a foreign plate? Someone I used to work with had a car from the Isle of Man that had a weird plate on it.

Personalised for me,not to be flash just allways wanted one

Personalised using the wifes initials! She has 3 initials and I have 4, so it wouldn't work for me and this way, there are few arguments about just HAVING to spend that extra bit of cash to make the car look good

Our 'fleet' all have similar plates, so it is also a bit of a 'pose'.

Standard numbers + letters, but GB plates are a must!

was thinking about personalised, but then I realised I was 2 months out as you cannot make the car look newer than it is. So am afraid it,s bog standard DVLA

mine is jus a standard issue reg.

benn looking for a personal plate

rang up last year before i had the lex to try and get
M1 TCH...... guess wot , it was auctioned for £26000 so that was a no go, tried other variations of mitch but nothin

so now gonna get one after holiday with DEM on it as my real name is demetrios

nice plate that

uncles has a wicked plate on his beemer

P6 KER with the pin in the 6 so it looks like a O POKER

There is an impreza by us - has the plate S60 OBY

A cunningly placed screw top - and it just reads SCOOBY - can't believe he gets away with it!

Mine is m15 mud as my name is tony mudd .i had the plate made for my wife and altered the 5 to be an S spelling MIS MUD .all was well until i had some jobsworth bobby keep stoppig me now the S is back to being a 5.Must admit though cost me a small fortune over the years transfering it to each car as i have changed my car 18 times in the last five years.

18 times ***** thats alot of cars

how much does it cost to transfer it between cars??

It depends most of mine have had to go on retention first and that is £135 a go but for a simple swap it is much cheaper .The reason for so many cars is i get bored very easy but the lexus i like so might just hang on to it for a few weeks but am very tempted to buy an evo or a skyline .Need more power

j and n electrical van

Ooohh suits you sir.......you like red then bazza

funnily enough !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!






the wifeys car is red as well

One of my Grandad's friends was filling up his Rolls Royce at a petrol station in London many years ago, when a fellow Rolls driver pulled up behind him. He'd been following my Grandad's friend purely because he wanted to buy the registration plate from his car. According to my Grandad, after a bit of negotiating, his friend agreed to let him have the plate, but only if it stayed on the car ie.swap Rollers as my Grandad's friend preferred the colour of this other chaps Roller . The bloke agreed and they basically did a straight swap a few days later. My Grandad's friend did quite well out of the deal because his new Roller had less miles and was a better spec than his!
Just goes to show the lengths some people go to in persuit of vanity!

a mate of mine owns two plates (only one is on a car)

he owns P1 GFO and P1 GFU

so.....they spell......

P1G F O

and

P1G F U

he he - they do make me chuckle!! He bought them as an investment, and they're worth quite a bit now apparently. He's NEVER been stopped for them, though he does only have it on a new shape rover 200 (nothing special).

Hi,

Thanks to everyone who contributed to the poll

Meanwhile, here's a link to DVLA auction 'hammer prices' for LEX registrations.

Cheers,
