My custom license plate got approved!

Not sure if I mentioned this in another thread, but I wanted to get a vanity plate (Connecticut). The one I wanted was 14-MINI and after checking my MVD online, it was available. I quickly sent in the paperwork, knowing that assignment is first-come first-served and that someone else could have sent in their paperwork before me. After waiting two weeks, I found out that my plate was approved. I now have to wait for the plate to be made. I should get it later next month.

Anyone else getting a vanity plate? If so, what are you wanting, or what do you have?

Here in VA, you can reserve your vanity plate for 90 days. I have reserved a few ideas so far, but I'm leaning toward going with: PLKY BRT (Plucky Brit).

So my MINI, that is waiting on a ship, is blue with a white top / stripes and black wheels. I have a few ideas along the lines of Doctor Who and his TARDIS (you have to be a geek like me to get it). http://www.theaftermatter.com/wp-con...10/TARDIS.jpeg

Cool, I'm in NC and was thinking about TARDIS S for mine. But, since my F56 is all black, I may go with TRCHWOOD instead. My car is built but still waiting for a ship.

I'm in Baltimore (30 minutes from the dock ) , my car is on its way to the ship. I hope it makes it to the next one. I would hate to have to wait too long. In MD we only get 7 characters for the plate. I like your TARDIS S idea. I was thinking "TYMELRD" as most variations of TIME LORD were taken. also CALL BOX is available

Congrats on getting the plates you all wanted. Unfortunately for us our friends are more clever than we are, so we're still trying to come up with something good...hard being that we are limited to 6 characters on charitable organization vanity plates (versus 7 characters on standard plates). However, our friends' cars have:
LFSAHWY = Life's A Highway
TWUBBLE = Trouble

Good, eh?

On occasion I see, on my way to work in Houston, a Ford F40 with a plate "RLY FST" (Really Fast), AND I bet it is. LOL

My MINI license plate

This is the plate I have on the rear of my 2010 Chili Red MCS. It gets a lot of compliments here in Columbus, Ohio.

I have a dark blue metallic F56 S with black roof/mirrors and bonnet stripes. I ordered TARDIS7 a couple weeks ago here in Utah and suspect it's been approved since I haven't heard anything yet. Looking forward to taking a trip to Lake Silencio!
