Also B16 PEX on a Bodybuilders Range Rover at a bodybuilding show a few years back.

> Could not have been B4D ****- no such number

Would have been B 405 HIT or no doubt B40 ****. Bit contrived but not much worse than others.

TUR 130, 911 JET and 911 HOT were all Porsche UK demonstrators a while ago, as were my faves at the time - THE 944 S and THE 928 S

Local plumber has B1DET on his van.

Chap who used to post on here had R1NGA on his rather special Scoob which he'd developed almost purely for driving at the Nurburgring.

I love it when the illegally spaced ones get fined and put back the way nature intended
It's probably less hassle and cheaper to keep the original plates or buy a normal "private plate" and get a sticker for the back window saying "bellend on board"

BEG 4 1T used to be on a Ferrari GTO...

Pretty cool

(before someone trolls... it was a boxer, not a GTO)

Went to Dobbies garden centre the other week and passed Pink Punters pub (I kid you not, do a google for it) In the carpark which is open to the road before anyone says I went in there! Anyway they have a black Range Rover which is B1 GAY. Some BMW too next to it with something relating to the pub too.

Remember seeing WOW HOT a few years ago - must have been one of those variations that make you think its something that its not - WOW 40T with a funny 4 maybe

The 130LOX was bought by a guy who used to live down the road from me - Someone nicked the plates off the car while parked up one night

Fairly sure B11 LOX was on a 911, but now on a Merc. Cannot recall the actual characters but it was based around bullock/bullocks as he owend bulls which he'd put out to stud.

I had a m8 that used to have a buisness selling plates. I asked him if he could get G1RTH or something alogn those lines & how much it would be.

Few weeks later he emailed me a pic of a car with it or similar on. Was a old rover if i recall correctly il have to try & find the pic.

Drive past a house on the river in Chelsea once in a while and see

on one car 2 BE

and the other NOT 2BE

not sure of the spacing, make up of the second one.
