Since posting my original reply, I did get a vanity plate for the XK8: GGRRRR. In Connecticut, we're only allowed six characters and someone else already had GRRRRR. Certainly hope it was at least another Jag owner!

I feel sorta bad squatting on XJ6 when I doubt I'll ever own another. I was shocked when I first found it available. With all the Jags prowling Connecticut, I assumed it would have been taken already. Too bad I can't sell the plates. DMV would undoubtedly charge me a fee to change to plain ones.

A couple of times I've noticed someone in the car behind me taking a cell phone photo of the GGRRRR plate.

I had in Illinois XKR JAG, but in Wisconsin I have MY XKR. I thought about:

2QWK4U
MTCHKBK
FAST R
COOLJAG
ON A JAG
JAG FUN
A BGR E
E to R

It's not an easy business to come up with a good one.

My car is an 2007 XK. The plate is Florida:

I'm so damn cute I can't stand it.

It's usually the ladies that freak out and laugh at my license plate. My cat needs a car wash after this cold front moves through!

Hi Guys ,
We are a bit limited in the UK as to what you can have as a plate ,

this was the best I could buy at the time .........N1XKO , with a black bolt in the middle of the 0 it looks a little like Nik's XK8 (if you squint)



All the best

NikasilNik

Mine is pretty basic, as many are already taken. I have "KEVSJAG". I originally was looking at XKR's and wanted "BLOWNXK". Still like that one! One guy here in AZ has a Corvette with "ICULOOKIN". Always liked that one, too!

Some ideas for those looking:

JAGWARR JAGWAR
JAGRARR JAGRAR
CATMEOW CATSMEW CATSMOW
RAR CAT RARRCAT ROARCAT
HEARROR
MEEOOW MEOW MEOUCH
CATSCRCH CATFEVR

Some of these might already be here, but I'm sitting on the throne with my phone in my hand, and these came to mind.

Oh, come on, you know you do it too!
