Removing personalised number plate

[JohnW2]

It was "Something" along those lines as I remember it but may not be 100% accurate but you pretty much get the gist of my meaning hopefully.

As Mottie wrote, the exact combination of letters/numbers you mentioned is not possible. However, if one reduces it to "B4RRY", then DVLA says that it is 'not available' ....

... but I wonder whether it is perhaps 'not available' because someone has already 'bought' it, since if one goes to this website (click here) one finds (at a very silly price, echoing your comments ) ...

Kind Regards, John

Anyway it is all really silly if you ask me. Some folk have more money than sense.

Actually it might have been that one he had or was thinking of having and at the price back then he reckoned it was a snip and thats why I made my comment Ok to sell on at a good profit but otherwise not.

Agreed (unless, as you say, it was bought as a financially-sensible 'investment').

However, I would not hold that against those who do it. Indeed, if I had "more money than I knew what to do with", I might well do the same ("why not?"!).

As I see it, i's really no different from buying designer products (particularly with the 'designer name' written all over them!), ridiculously fancy/expensive cars/whatever or 'real diamonds' that 99.9% of the population can't distinguish from impersonations, but which cost a fraction of the amount.


Kind Regards, John
