Anyone can have a personal registration plate!! Just change your name by deed poll to whatever your license plate is. It saves you a fortune!!

You bumped a 7 year old post, to reply with something you read in Viz at around that time...

I also read it in Viz....!
My ideal plate would be
HO53 MAN

Wanted HO53 RHS but they wouldnt let me caus my van is an 03 plate...BUT the manufacture date is only 12 days before the 53 came out!! I argued that two vans could have been sitting next to each other on the merc production line the same time and one is sold before the other hence given the 03 plate, hell mine could even have been manufactured earlier in the week, just not sold as soon because of the colour or spec!!
DVLA didnt see it like that and told me i was trying to make the van look newer....by 12 days!!! Tools

I've got the ideal plate for mine in that it says my surname, but I want 4LEX to sit next to it.

It's on a Scirocco which I've seen in Liverpool. Maybe at some point later in life I'll stop him and make an offer.

4LEX That must have been really expensive!!
Why have such an expensive plate then drive a Scirocco... Don't get me wrong I think the Scirocco is a lovely car.

I guess it'd be around £40k, crude estimate based on 6LEX being £15k last time I enquired.

Plate may have been a gift. Friend of mine had 1TSM on his Civic when he passed his test.

I'd be a bit gutted if someone got me an expensive plate as a gift... Not that I wouldn't appreciate it but I could have spent the money on something far more useful...

Well the plate is on a Lambo now and I don't think he ever wanted for much as a kid.

I'd wanted my plate for ages, mine was given to me as a 21st present as I'd asked for something I could keep.

Hi Hoseman. I was looking on dvla website you can have any of these for £815 HOS3 AAA HOS3 AAY HOS3 ACE HOS3 ACT HOS3 ADD HOS3 AGE HOS3 AGO HOSE AHA HOSE ALL HOS3 ANY HOS3 APE HOS3 ARK HOS3 ART HOS3 ASK HOS3 AVE. I know you had your eye on HOS3 RHS .Dvla won`t allow you to have that plate because your reg isn`t 03 .If you bought the plate anyway and register it in your name it will only cost you £25 a year to keep it untill you get your self a later model van.I know because i`ve just done it on 11 plate ,which i can`t get just yet but i`ve got the plate i want for then June

Fair enough... I'm sure you'd agree a personalised plate would look daft on my "shed" wink

Looks like between £3-500 I'd have thought. Well that's the prices they're listed at.
