Chip van in Ullapool used to have "A CH1P."

Since there have been a few snooker ones mentioned, I'm pretty sure Jimmy White has CUE BOY (Presumably CUE 80Y ??)

The Queen of course has "1" (and "2", "3".. etc)

Saw LEW 15 a few years back on a Merc 500 in a side street near the Quayside district of Newcastle.

I was pi$$ed and puking up at the time so I might have halucinated it

Exclamation

Can I mention: <B>T8 NGO</B>

Was £1300, on the T-reg allocation day, but 6 months later, £700.

<B>T4 NGO</B> went up for auction, and apparently went for lowish 5 figures!! Someone saw it on an Audi A4/S4, but it would have looked much better on my car!!!

For some reason the guy that originally bought my scoob paid about a grand for 'R555 RAC'. I on the other hand got it for nothing!

Best plate / car combo I have seen was a yellow Diablo in Bucks - D14BLO. Nice.

However, for comical value, I saw one years ago for sale that I have never forgotten.... ORG45M.

Missed out on my ideal plate which came onto the market a couple of years ago..MCC 69 - so if anyone knows it's for sale give me a shout.
