Yes a lot of people dont realise that they will get pulled for spacing problems , or incorrect characters

What really annoys me about it is that the DVLA were advertising private regs with the illegal spacing shown - bloody hypocrites!!!

I've seen that one too-last year heading towards Bournemouth from Poole.

It's justified...

That plate used to belong to a Mr Self who was a bitch to Richard Carr for a bit. He was a mate of a mate and used to live down the road from me.

Allegedly, so I've been told from an unreliable source, who was told 3rd hand by a liar, it all went a bit Pete Tong when a certain investigative reporter of that time looked into what we shall call "goings on", but the program was never broadcast.

I think Darrell Self now drives a car with number plate "5 ELF".

And to answer the question, his wife should have been driving the car!

Used to walk past on the way to School and back again a white Jag XJS with the reg XJ5. Was always dead jealous and wanted an XJS for years after.

Back in the 70's there was one owned by a porn. "lady" on her RR. FU2.
I assume that in the UK, PC state that that would no longer be allowed.
