Default My new personalized License plate

Well after spending several hours coming up with lots of great phrases for my new license plates, I go on the California DMV website only to find that they were all taken by others. Oh, well........ in the end I wanted something stealth that only other Jag owners might understand. A bit like a secret code if you will that only die hards would actually understand. To my complete surprise, none of my fellow forum members has purchased X 152. I bought it immediately, now I just have to wait 12 weeks ! In the meantime, the attached Photoshop will have to suffice. I like the fact that most people on the road won't even get it.

I like it. Almost no one will get it, subtle yet perfect.

I considered that but decided to not get a personalized plate. I thought it was a nice inside reference.

Very nice! I was just shopping for my soon to arrive F type and I definitely considered the X152 in some of the combos I tried. Hope to see you on the road soon!

Thanks Guys, I'm really happy with X 152. Here are a few other options that are not taken as of Saturday night. I really considered a few of them as well but in the end I wanted something that most people couldn't read in an obvious way. I actually have never liked the idea of personalized plates for myself because most of the ones you see on the road are a bit cheezy for my tastes.

I love the X152 plate; it suits the car perfectly. I envy you guys at being able to register custom plates like that - over here we are limited to certain letter/number patterns.

Dude I am *SOOOOO* glad you bought those. I had that plate up on the DMV site for about 2 months, and I spent mucho time shifting the letters around so it was "X152", looking at half spacing, etc. Now I can just stop with it, and let a word in my own "idiom" to present itself. Cheers to you and have fun with it. Easily the best plate available.

Yeah, I just couldn't pull the trigger either.
