The original car from 1963 and has been in the family since then on a few different cars.
Saw the car yesterday.
Vauxhall thingy now, but been on a variety of Peugeots and even on a Hillman Imp.
Dunno what the original car was in 1963/4.

I saved hundreds of pounds on a personalised number plate by simply changing my name by deed poll to match that of my car number plate.

So P19 STY is theoretically possible, although I don't know if it was ever issued or if it still exists
I got passed by P1 GGY on Monday in Parbold, I can't recall if it was spaced correctly or not, or what car it was on, only two days ago - my memory :? .

I am reminded of an account customer when I worked at a service station in my college days. He was a local farmer in his 50’s with two vehicles one of which was a battered Landrover, the other a Rover SD1 Vanden Plas with the reg plate HOT 1.
The older I get the more I’m inclined to act my shoe size, not my age.

Don't worry. I, for one, cannot tell the difference. They are all cars to me.

Isn't it a blooming shame?

I saw C7 ONE spaced correctly on an Audi TT today in Scarisbrick, was Claude/ette born in 1971,
or is it meant to read as 'clone', quite possibly he/she was from Clones, County Monaghan originally ?
That must surely be it's meaning, for what else could it possibly be ; 50 year old Claude/ette of Clones, having a mid-life crisis.
It must have taken him/her ages to find it.

YE55TEF. No Stef, overtaking on a blind bend in the dark, and then having to cut in on me because of an oncoming car ( what a :o ), like your number plate, not cool.
