DVLA issues statement on 'offensive' Rovers number plate

"DVLA regularly reviews the appropriateness of registration numbers and withholds any numbers that may cause offence, embarrassment or are in poor taste"

Do you have a personalised football number plate? I want ALB10N but I believe a WBA owner has it. If you have one hopefully its not offensive.

We are lucky as adding BHA is relatively easy as is for fans if:

WBA, WHU, PNE, QPR, Bristol Rovers (GAS)

Football by number plates...

With all football fans’ eyes turning towards Brazil, DVLA has today revealed the top ten football number plates that they have sold.

Mrs Earle has a personalised BHA number plate, but these Bristol fans are pushing their luck and claiming the withdrawal of their cherished number plate has 'affected their mental health'. Really? It's a number plate!!!

I had to read the article to see why the plate was actually offensive. Maybe I’m just too naive.

 

[beorhthelm]

seems a long time to suddenly find some offense, DVLA cant seriously claim "regular" review.

Cannot understand personalised number plates at all. So tacky. And even more so on famous people who 'just want to be left alone'.

Having BHA at the end I suppose is acceptable, although it is incredibly common round here, three people on my road have it.

 

[Dick Swiveller]

Shame you can't have two. PRA7T and PLA7E

I have a BHA number plate which currently resides on my wife’s car (due to me previously having a company car). I’ve had it since 2005.
I quite like the fact that others in my neighbourhood have similar number plates.

They are knobish, stupid idea.

I like your sense of humour, but don't go posting here:

[Misc] - How many f*****g cars do your next door neighbours have between them?

That’s not why people are get pissed off about though is it - it is when those cars make it difficult for people to get onto and off their own property or damn difficult to navigate round them. If people want to own several cars then they should move somewhere that has residential parking...

My dad liked them and got me mine as an 18th birthday present

Are there any vacancies at the DVLA?

I get the personalised plates to a point. Having BHA at the end of other digits is acceptable or WHU, WBA, QPR for example. What I find absolutely pathetic is where individuals space the letters / numbers on their vehicle to make something like a name. Apart from being tacky it's illegal.

 

[Flounce]

I have a couple of totally legal car related plates and also have a few cars (all parked off road on my property). I like the cars and the plates. All taxed, in good condition, MOTd and used.

I gather I am a total knob according to NSC from the parking thread and this one, oh well

I do have a personalised plate on my Porsche - let the abuse begin

It spells my surname with no mis-spacing or spurious substitutions (well a number 1 for a letter I, but they are identical in the official number plate font)

Double whammy - a Porsche AND a personalised plate, tin hat time. Please don’t now tell us you park outside someone else’s house with two wheels on the pavement and get aggressive with your neighbours if they ask you not to

 

[North of Robertsbridge]

No, it stays in the garage, as the rest of the family are so embarrassed by it

Initially I thought it may have to do with something to do with Laughing Gas-tbh id never heard that Bristol Rovers were called the Gas-I too didn't get the racial slur reference till it was pointed out-

 

[The Antikythera Mechanism]

I have X6 followed by my initials. Is that ok?

 

[dazzer6666]

Another nob here according to the NSC jury, mine is fairly unobtrusive (initials and birth year) and was cheap IDGAF what anyone else thinks
