+1, looks awful, these plates are a tax on idiots!  :laugh:

You might have got away with it, but honestly, it just looks cheap and tacky.

I saw one last night that was H9 RNV, the 9 had been turned into a O with a tail and the V had a tail to make it look like a Y. It was on an S5 and sounded pretty good when he took off.

To be really honest, I might look at a car which sounded throaty and powerful...the number plate would never rate a glance...ever!

I'm not that sad that I need to look at a number plate on a car to remind me how I feel.
