Here's mine. In case your wondering what it means:-
S - because it's a MCS
555 - because they look like S's
COO - for Cooper

I think the MY51 COO would look good - depends on your budget though, as it is the most expensive there . If I remember rightly, I think mine was about £250 - took part in the London to Brighton Mini run today & saw MINI Speed's MCS there - their plate is S500 COO

I have a MCSC and got the plate "NODDDY", with the roof off it just looks like Noddy's car so I thought I'd beat my "friends" referring to it so. Certaily gets a few comments and laughs when I'm out and about.

Have to agree! "MY51 COO" looks the best but is the dearest. The only bad point is that it still shows the age of the car "51".

Get a proper private plate that you can keep, not a car specific one which is a waste of money.

Hi

I have a private plate which ends in "FUN"
Seemed logical to me as the car is so fun to drive
Best bit was it only cost £250 from the DVLA, which includes all the various fees

Have fun!!!
