personalized license plate

My wife and I were just discussing what she could put on her Cooper S license plate. What, if any, personalized plates are others creating for their MIMIs.

I've already got mine...(see avatar)

check out my post in this thread for a pointer:
http://www.mini2.com/forum/showthrea...ighlight=plate

Or do a search for "vanity plate" or "personalized plate".
Lots of good ideas are available.

It's all a bit restrictive here in the UK and personal plates can be very expensive, but a few months ago I bought M11CPR for £250 direct from the DVLA which will be on my new S in September.

If you squint it looks like Mini Cooper....much better than the 52 plate I would otherwise get.

The UK DVLA website is very good for doing searches for available plates:

http://www.dvla-som.co.uk/search/index.php

Only 76 days to go....


S collected...as promised at 12:00 on 29 Oct - really getting to know it now - great car - DS (black roof), full leather, sunroof, full Chilli and most of the other bits...got a bit carried away at the dealership!!!
