Motoring ID on license plate?

Does anyone else have their MINI Motoring ID on their license plate? If so, let's see em!

It seems that this thread needs some clarification. Your motoring ID is a number that you choose using certian pre-determined prefixes (COOP, WHIP, WILD, ZIG, etc) and a three digit number through the MINI Owner's Lounge. Your motoring ID is not your NAM username, or a custom license plate.

I'd have to change my handle....

Perhaps I should! My vanity tag will read: 7X (It's a fly fishing thing.....)

hopper (that's also a fly fishing thing. ;-)

Not to hijack this thread, but I'm wondering what people think about this, and it is related.

I refer to my car as Tricky Fish (hammerhead shark on the dash, Lilo&Stitch line calling a shark a Tricky Fish), and I do have the motoring ID LETS170.

So if I could only put one of those on my car (sticker or lisence plate, either one) which is better?

I think the most letters you can put on a license plate is 8. So unless TrickyFish is abbreviated it would be too long.

LOL, some of you misunderstand what a Motoring ID is... cool pics, cool plates... but unless you registered your MINI for a Motoring ID at MINIUSA's Owner's Lounge, it's not really an official (and working) Motoring ID!

See my thread in the Dragon forum for a better understanding of Motoring IDs:
