I’ve got my eye on one that’s currently going through but keep getting outbid. I’m one bid away from my max now. Gutted.
I hope you get yours.

Was never planning to drop a bid before Tuesday 26th.

I suspect there are niow a couple of over bids. We'll see.

Not to bothered now, made the enquiry last year & would have spent a few bob :wink: , this year has changed.
What with the 20% Vat + Fees + 7% Vat on fees etc.

That’s the one I wanted. If not, there are cheaper plates on the DVLA site.

I disagree. That’s a great numberplate and will probably hold its value. I’ll eat my hat if it ever comes up for sale on here for less.

I disagree with your disagreement. If it was E85 FUN I could understand it, but E86 is like me buying a plate with my initials spelled wrong :lol:

I have called the DVLA and they have E86 NUF available too. I'm getting it for you for Xmas, Martin, just to annoy you! :lol:
All good things come to those who wait. I'm really impatient which explains a lot.

E89 20i Now fully dried
Z3 'free litre'. Project and a half. Complicated!
Mazda3 sold
Tatty old R56 Mini Cooper. Money pit!

Agree. Pointless really as 99.99% of those looking at it will have no idea what it means. Niche market, made more niche IMO. :)

That’s just weird. I buy a car (and numberplate if I wanted to) for me, not for anyone else. Call me selfish.
