....It's particularly traditional for a R32 driver to display a 'private' plate - It's expected!!

The police are well trained in remembering plates however much they are gobblygook, so you're not going to get special attention unless your driving deserves it.

....Every R32 driver I know (but I don't know any who aren't enthusiasts) either has or wants a plate which includes "R", "R32", "VW", "DUB". Perhaps hanging out with the Da Blues Brothers are the wrong kind of people :wink:

Ahh i see what you mean.. Have seen a few like that but to be honest the majority of plates I have seen on an R32 have been a name or something like that. Mine is my surname and a good representation of it too! (well i think so)

....And only one of those R32's (a Mk5) is standard! Millteks, Schrik cams, big brakes, air induction, suspension, etc etc. :smiley:
