i know its not a mini bt it would be a cool number plate

i took the picture while i ws driving ages ago of a local car in carrick on shannon

i know a bloke with 1275 on his plate.... weird thing is that its on a mini... 1275cc at that.

I know one with 1300 in the reg, and it's on a Mini too

Mine has 521 in it, how cool is that.

yours also has 71 and LM in it which makes it even cooler!

the LM just kills its coolness...i mean it was registered in leitrim! nice, real nice

If it had LM and 500 or 600 then it would be a big marcos,no roundabout in Longford would be safe and that guy with 1275 on the plate of his mini is only an urban legend. .

Actually it's registered in France, the LM stands for Le Mans.

Hi Neil,

Havent seen the marcos in the metal yet but looks savage from the photo! Where did you get your number plates done? I was going to get a set soon,always prefered when the letters/numbers are bigger.

Don't you mean you've not seen it in the fibre glass no metal?????

But you are right it is one savage car........ i even had the privilage of driving it around the IMM camp site and up on to the trailer.......
Neil i still have my name down to do the M2M 2010 with you in it....

You might all hate me after this as i know BMW aren't recieved well by original Mini fans :) but i got my M3 registered last year, had to pay an extra €315 to get it, but it reads '96-WX-3'

I see the price of putting by a number now has gone up to €1000 in the last budget! Crazy stuff!

Its not a mini,but i have a R33 nissan skyline with the reg 98 CN 33.

My Mini is 84 LM 121, if only the 2 were an N

Get new plates made with the 2 angled to look close to an n

I got the 08 MH 5 for my MX 5 last year. It meant moving Maynooth from Co.Kildare into Co.Meath.

MX 5's on Mini forums.... well I never...before you post that the thread said cool number plates, only joking.

My Mini Seven has a very cool reg 01 MN 1 - can't take any credit for it unfortunately as it was on the car when I got it. The fact that it has a single digit number gets a lot of attention and then as people study it the're rearranging the letters to make O m1n1.

what chance of personalised number plates...? u know, like BRITTNY or RACER ?? i guess we'd need a referendum..... .

One of the best I ever saw was on Dublins quays a while back. Just an ordinary passat, but the reg went 08-WD-40!
