Looking for some inspiration for my bug thought i might treat it to some new plates, so i wonder whats the best/clever ones you recall seeing (its a superbug btw if this helps narrow the range of suggestions!)

How many letters can you have in WA on a number plate?

fatty

"A combination of up to seven (7) letters and numbers on normal size aluminium plates, or up to nine (9) letters and numbers on steel plates"

The aluminium ones are more style appropriate so 7 ideally cheers

My number plates

What size engine does it have, maybe something like BUG1600 or year model, like 73SUPER

I still have the old PO plates from my notch. JM-71-VW

pretty cool just to hang up on the wall.

SUPABUG is a bit obvious maybe.
BUGOFF
BUGGER
BEETLE1

It is a lot about what suits your personality too.

Saw this plate on a V8 Commodore in Panania NSW, IH8MYX. The driver was a lady!That's $275 up front and $440 every year to stick it to the man.

Saw a Beemer today with 04KOF

I giggled

Saw a new M3 BMW with plates NO HSC in Dee Why

Do you have to pay extra each year in other states to maintain a personalised or custom plate?

In Victoria, once you buy it, you never pay to retain the plate on or off a vehicle. It is just a one off payment when you originally purchase it.

Saw a mx5 with the plate NOP 00F

i think personalized plates that state the bleeding obvious are a waste of time and money..I've seen as an example AMGE63 right beside the badge that says AMGE63,might as well said douchbag imo,,If you think a little ouside the box you'll come up something that isn't the equalivent of a tribal arm band tattoo,cool at the time but......P155OFF works on every car i currently own the beetle,fiat 127bigblock valiant ute,thats my 2 cents,

I see so many douche bag ute owner have number plates saying jealous or envy in some description.

I feel like getting a spray can and stencil and spraying on the back "embarrassed" while crossing out their number plate.

"umadbro" would be a good sleeper number plate with troll eyes peaking over the plate. lol

It was much harder before there were personalised plates. Heard that there was a custom P'van in the early 80's with IGL 000 plates (cool!). You could get BUG 001 then too.
The new ones with 5 for S etc. just say "dy5l3ctic" really. But HOTRNU, TEASA, EATSV8 and such can be amusing.

I know a guy who got given for his B'day numberplate PSI-202 boosted holden 202s is his thing so I thought that was pretty cool.



another one for the douche ute owners. COK-SKR and NDL-DIC

Trouble is by now that all the clever ones are already gone. There are those who buy them for resale and purchase the clever/quirky/saleable ones when the plates were a new thing, then offer them up for $3000 when the idea catches on.

I like my ghia plates

Surely the coolest plates of all are the original ones the car came with when it was brand new, and still there today. Bonus for original VW dealer number plate frames and rear window dealer sticker/transfer.

I tried to get WIL-11E when I lived in Sydney, but it was gone.
In NT I had RX on a Subaru RX turbo, JN on our XR8 and 1218 on another Subaru (standard issue).
Personalised plated in the NT were cheap, so I could justify them up there. Here in the ACT they are way too expensive for my liking and as such I don't have any. I will try and get YVW-75L for my 1303 as a special order standard plate as opposed to a personalised plate.

According to vic roads site any plate starting with V is invalid unless its euro series. God damn it! I can have every other letter but V in the first letter.

been ghinking about plates for the posters bug,Since h brought up FATTIE,you could take that a step further to BOOMBA and xince your name here is sugarlips how about SWEETAS or
SW33TAS or SWEE7AS of5WEETAS or5W337AS or 2AT33W2 that last one my pick reads the same as all thd other but in the rearvision mirror.And if your a kiwi even better eh bro he he he(kiwi kev would love it)

There's a Mercedes down my way with 'THANKS' plates.....Owner obviously grateful for all the assistance to his/her wealth.
