Vanity plate help?

Hey all,

I'm about to pick up my mini at the end of the week and I need some help picking my personallized plate.

Here is what I'm deciding between: BIG MINI (I'm a big guy) or ACTUL SZ (actual size).

If anyone has any other suggestions they are welcome.

If it weren't for the seatbelt design on the tag this one would be neat for a MCS.

Or the tagline for an even smaller Marque.

How about: GRNHRNT since that's your Mini's name? (Green Hornet)

or MINI2NV (Mini 2 envy i.e. green w/ envy!)

Vanity Plate help

I almost ordered the ACTUL SZ plate but was able to find a variation of my first choice that worked.

From a combination of my favorite musical (Don Quixote in Man of La Mancha) and EXOTIC

QXXOTIC (quixotic)

The pursuit of perfection (even tho sometimes foolish and unfounded)

I think it fits well!

Jim

Thanks everyone, i like the suggestions. I'm kinda leaning toward BIG MINI. It's simple an to the point, plus how often do you get to have an oxymoron on your plate.

ACTUL SZ is still fun too...I don't know what to do.

HUNG would be funny, but va has some issues with plates that could be interpereted as sexual in nature. It's a very uptight state.

You're lucky you're in a state that gives you so many letters- in Oregon we only get six characters.

FWIW, my vote goes for BIG MINI...
(kinda reminds me of the Dustin Hoffman movie "Little Big Man")
