I saw 2UK 2 LA in the car park yesterday.

I used to have one when we lived in NC. ENG4EVR Everyone thought I was an engineer! The Union Jack next to it didn't give them a clue at all. Only my Brit friends got it immediately.

Personally, I can think of two plates I've seen in LA that made me laugh -- ROSH TOV and 10FT2X4. Of course, both of those are perfectly fine in their literal meaning.
Mea culpa -- it was "8FT2X4"
