Default Looking for suggestions for personalized license

Here in Florida I can do 5-7 characters. The obvious "JAG XKR" and "XKR JAG" are taken. Of course!

But "06 XKR" is available. However I'm looking for other suggestions.

Feel free to test availability at: CHECK PERSONAL PLATE

By far my favorite personalized plate since the late 1960s remains BRD SHT......

All these are still available. And all fit this plate


DADSXKR - tribute to your late father
RGB 000 - geeky color reference
JAGX104 - technically specific
XKR 4ME - for you
XKR 4US - for you and the wife
MADCATR - surprised this was still avail
FEELINE - a nod to the cost of maintenance
OTHRTRK - a nod to your wife's super truck

I used "NICE CAT" on mine after VA rejected my first choice "JAGNOFF".

Hmmm ...

RGB 000 would be appropriate both for the car and for my job (mathematician / software engineer developing real-time image analysis algorithms and software), but probably too geeky. Cute idea though!

DADSXKR hits home. Two years ago today I locked up my childhood home for the last time after moving my parents into a retirement home. Dad knew it was time and hung on for another 13 months.

The other ideas are creative and I'm going to think about them. Well, all except OTHRTRK that is.

XK ART

picks up the "r" sound while recognizing a work of art.

SWMBO (SHE Who Must Be Obeyed) has spoken. SHE said that since this car has been my dream ride for almost 20 years that I am to use her suggestion of MYDR34M (since MYDREAM is already taken).

Thank you all for your helpful suggestions. There were a few I was really tempted to use, but I've gotta keep Mama happy. SHE was the one who encouraged me to purchase Kat in the first place!

If you don't want to swap out the E for a 3

MYDRE4M is available too.

FWIW I initially read the MYDR34M as my doctor 34 male.

Thank you David. And that is the license I went with!

LOL! That would just be wrong.

When I was debating, my daughter suggested "JAAAAAG" as in how Jeremy Clarkson pronounces it.

Whatever you decide on, you should not abbreviate to the upper case letters below:

Too late. I ordered "MYDRE4M" yesterday. Mustn't upset SWMBO who suggested it. And it really had been my dream back around 2000 when my company looked like it might take off.
