I've never had a personal number plate. Hubby and I were only commenting last w/e as we drove up the M11 how many cars had them now. I think the witty ones are great, I wish I'd written them down to put them on here!

Surely a personalised plate draws attention to your car and your driving and is certainly easily remembered by police/joe public - I'd rather be uncognito;)

I see it as no big deal because they are not anywhere near as expensive or considered as exclusive as the prices that drive the personal plates in the UK. Hubby figured it was the same as jewelry or shoes or new handbag!!:rofl:

Never thought of them as particularly exclusive, but good that they are accessible financially if someone wants one.

I suppose being practical, unless one is Beckhamesque rich, there is always a choice to be made with consumerism. My desires would be more along the fabulous holiday/coastal home with infinity pool lines.:)

And also, what car would one put them on? Not a bog standard Japanese family car, but not on a gorgeous luxury car either! The decisions some of you have to make! :rofl:
