Does your Mini have a Private Number Plate?

I'm thinking about getting a private number plate but am not sure what it should say.

So my question is who here has one? And what does it say? Any pics of the plates on your Mini would be great.

A private plate is just that...private ie personal you can't ask someone what it should say .

I have one on my mini it's Y999 AJR which are my initials, it was a 21st present earlier this year.

I've got one on mine which is M333 POD, with Podmore being my second name.

M333 was to kind of look like me, but the pod bit is the main part.

Personalised number plates are something personal to yourself, e.g Name, Initials or DOB.

Kind Regards Mitchell

I dont have a private plate but the number on my cooper ends in AAA, everyone winds me up by saying that its a small car and only needs small batteries to run it !

I picked up a personal plate for mine when I bought it, but need to get it transfered over, hopefully doing that next week.
Mine relates to the car rather than me, so I have an 'R50' number for my R50 Cooper Park Lane.
Hope this helps?
