As you know, there's no 'vanity' plates in the UK - you can only have a plate that was once issued by DVLA in the usual way. I was delighted that my car came with the plate it did. A previous owner must have paid a few bob for it. The car was 'born' GK59 UKD. The second owner changed it to GC05 LFC (their initials I suppose), restoring the original when they sold the car - and the third owner put this plate on.

If I were going to spring for a personalized plate, I'd want something completely forgettable. Or at least hard to remember. White letters and numbers on a white background would be nice.

I must be missing the significance, been googling, but don’t see anything of interest. What am I missing?

Luv says Something Completely Forgettable..... as in nobody will actually know what it is. 18108I08 or whatever isn't easy to distinguish and not easily remembered. Think Passing a Cop on a Freeway, by a lot.
