Must admit i nearly made the mistake of going for the last 3 letters VAG meening Volkswagen AG but then i was told it was well known american english slang for something else.

....VW05 RED ? - Oh, sorry! That's taken! :wink: :cool:

My '05' can be interpreted as Mk5 or the date - I don't care which.
Must admit when i first noticed yours a few years back now i nearly went for VW05 BLU for mine.
I have noticed most like that are still available.
VW## RED
VW## BLU
VW## BLK
etc.

....The nice thing about such plates is that they are a tribute to the car rather than the owner. :smiley:
