Funny Personal License Plate

I was just at Heritage Garage in Costa Mesa - a classic Mini shop - and saw a very funny license plate. It says:

666 BMW


I wash I had that plate for my last Beemer!

Speaking of custom plates, I just ordered mine from Virginia. I had a lot of choices, but settled on "SMALL EH"

I tried to get BLOODYL ("Bloody 'ell"), but California DMV rejected it.

Best one I've seen: I8 N SUV, belongs to someone in my MINI club.

I thought about getting a Euro-style vanity plate for the front that reads:

TI 3V0M

But, that might come off as a bit agressive in someone's rearview, though...

I had to get a French acronym, 'cause the DMV catches all the Spanish ones - we're so close to the border, and the Porsche guys tried everything German.

It's slang for "Oh S**T" ;-)

I really wanted that one, but all the good derivations of it were taken in Cali. I ended up with PNUT JET.

I just ordered mine. WOT DOG. Wide Open Throttle DOG. A bit esoteric, but that's ok.
