03 MCS Chili Red/White

License Plate: CHLYRED

It's supposed to mean chilly as in the weather here, the other chili is just an added bonus. Nobody around here gets it though. I'm changing it pretty soon to GN4RK11 (Gnar Kill) its a CKY spin off band with Bam Margera.

In college, I was given the name "Mr. Obnoxious" by a girlfriend. When I did my PhD oral, she didn't listen to the talk, but she met me as I left the lecture hall, and gave me a shirt that said "Dr. Obnoxious" on it! Everyone loves it, as it really fits my personality. There is one hold out, my mom thinks it reflects poorly on my upbringing!

Well, since I got the MINI in November 03, I had YELOMINI. I have since decided that it was a litlel too blase for a LY MINI and got ACTL SIZ when I renewed. I'm in Morrisville, NC near Raleigh.

Squint - you'll see it

Took delivery of my '05 MCS in October and I've been waiting for lightning to strike with just the right plate idea. Well, lightning hit me this morning at 5:30 and I submitted my application a few hours later. Squint - it's there ...

( M I N I)
Maryland doesn't allow the letter I (eye) so I justed used 1 (one) instead.

I know I have posted my plate combination before but here is a picture of it. To this day I occasionally see people behind me taking pictures of the plate.

2005 Electric Blue MCS, white top and stripes, waiting to be transported from Nashville. When it arrives I will apply for either: ISSI, IZZY or ISIGNIS. Will try for ISSI, first.

ISIGNIS (only seven letters allowed) it is.

I fail to understand the paranoia about revealing one’s license plate data. Here in California the law requires that license plates be prominently displayed both front and rear, clearly visible to the public (including outlaw PT Cruiser car club members). However, I must admit to being a scofflaw and don’t have front plates on my MINI or my Z3.

The D.O.T. has long required that VINs be clearly visible from outside of each vehicle. Take a look at the lower driver’s side of your MINI’s windshield.

My military background (active duty ‘52 thru ‘72) certainly taught me to safeguard sensitive information, but matters of public record can hardly be considered to be sensitive.
