We're slightly restricted in the UK in our types of plate and the DVLA are pretty hot on ensuring that anything that could be insulting isn't on the roads

I bought my personal plate in 2006 and it cost Ł295, purely because my name is Mark and I live at no 16 and had an XK8



When filling up with propane (car was converted in 2005 and returned the equivalent of 60mpg in monetary terms) a little old lady limped up to me and asked

Q) Are you MI6 ex KGB?
A) Appreciate I was wearing a rather nice suit "Madam if I tell you I will most certainly have to kill you!"

It;s a legacy thing, I know I can buy M16 XKR for the same money but am sticking with the old one



Not that on the blue one the J had dropped off so I got a close matched SH to replace the J, was considering a union jack wrap...for all of 5 seconds

I put vanity tags on both my Jaguars. Rather smugly, I might add, keeping it simple, just counting the Jags.

My old 96XJS was GRRR8. I did not put vanity plates on the XKR.

No room for the R on the plate. It makes my point to those behind me.

I want to get a wine related vanity plate for my Aston. MA is 6 digits. If you have some good ideas, please post them. I use to have BAROLO on our Range Rover, so not that one...

‘IM DUI’ should at least catch the eye of the local county mounty.

You have to earn this one, and it came at a high price.



The black frame is the solar powered wireless backup cam and the black wire is for the battery maintainer.

It repels blue lights.

Not sure that would be approved by the Commonwealth.

I don't have vanity plates, but the plates I was given when I transferred the Jag into my state might as well be. I chose the forum name "dangoesfast" specifically to join Jaguar forums to research my car and had never used it before, and my racing/sport number has been 83 since I started BMX at about 5 years old.

Imagine my surprise when the lady at the motor registry reaches into her stack of stock standard regular-priced plates and pulls out DGF83Z 🤯

Had to try several combinations to get one I liked that were not used.I ordered the California vintage Black with Gold lettering. This is the sample as ordered. But…6 to 8 months lead time. I guess we need more prisoners at Folsom State Prison where they are made.

I ordered a front custom vanity plate from a place in GB. I'm very happy with the results.
