One warning though if like me j change cars often will cost alot in fees! I have had it on bout 4 cars and 2bikes now!
WTF, if C4 WLK has been valued at over £1500 i think ill get rid of mine as its no different to every other 'initial' plate that doesn't mean anything to anyone else and still go for £250 on DVLA.

it means enough to someone with 1500 spare to spend, surely that is all that matters.

I really fancy one. Only decent one I can find is 2k though. I just think of it as a car and I can make the money back if I sell it on. It's just an initial outlay.
found one for you.tried guessing around your user name

Nice try but it's nothing special 
I think an Asbo plate is going to be nothing but trouble and as my car won't quite be legal when I'm done I'll give it a miss unless something else I like comes up.

It doesn't look anything special now.... but swap your eyes around and it all becomes clear......
(sorry, couldn't resist.)

Just been massively put off as my mate just reminded me how much we take the mick when people have a plate with their name on
That's closer to Gizham than Graham. Not worth it.

I know loads of cops with 999 on their private plate, don't think I'd dare when my car is parked outside the nick! Always fancied L9 HPR though

Would rather spend 2k on my engine build anyway
And sod having 999 when you're a policeman, talk about open yourself for targeting

I have S20 CCO on my scirocco, didn't pay much for it and hoping it will go up in value. Suits the car perfectly though imo.

Yeah that's quite cool, I just wouldn't want a plate that has to stay with a car or sell it on once I sell it. I can get MY05 FEZ for like £300 or so but it's nothing special to me

I always said that and to be honest still do, but it was kind of an impulse buy. Il sell it before I sell the car, someone will buy it.
