I just followed a learner driver into work. The standard, DVLA issued registration plate was incredibly apt; it was PA55 ERE, i.e. "pass 'ere"!

When I was with my previous carrier, another truck that regularly picked up at one of the shippers we dealt with fairly often was a missed opportunity with its unit number. It was a Kenworth W900 with the unit number "379". How is that a wasted opportunity? At the time, the W900's "corporate twin" was the Peterbilt 379 (later replaced by the 389 when a change in emissions regulations came into effect, but Kenworth didn't change their model number).Any fool can piss on the floor. It takes a talented SC to shit on the ceiling.Comment

I remember seeing a plate that I'm pretty sure was a standard random plate, but what it said was:
2BZU108
(Pronounce each letter and each digit. "Too Busy, You Wanna Wait?")
A friend of mine once saw a Porsche with the vanity plate "BUG GUTZ". (Early Porsches used engines derived from early Volkswagens.)
There's also photos of a vanity plate out there "3L0H55A", which is designed to be viewed in a rear-view mirror.“There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old’s life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged.
One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world.
The other, of course, involves orcs." -- John RogersComment

My friends are actors in a local theater production. They just got vanity plates. Hers says "tee-hee" because she's the heroine sometimes and his says "mwahaha" because he plays the villain.

Not exactly a car, but there used to be a train trundling around the southern part of the British railway network with "1066" painted on the front.
It was one of a series of multiple-unit trains specially designed for the Hastings line, which had several particularly narrow tunnels. It was given the new number 1066 upon conversion to track maintenance duties, specifically depositing Sandite to improve adhesion in autumn.
And, as any British schoolboy knows, 1066 was the date of the Battle of Hastings.Comment
