I have a habit of making phrases from the last three letters of car numberplates... so for example if I was cut up by an F D H, then that would stand for F***ing D*** Head....
Also for some of the cars I've had...
Rover 620ti S***DGP = Damn Good Performance (or... Drinks Gallons of Petrol):roll:
Vauxhall Cavalier M***LDB = Lousy Disc Brakes
Vauxhall Calibra K***GRS = Got Real Style
Does anyone else do this? What words do the letters on your current car spell out?

My Corsa runaround is L655 DBU
Due to my name being Ben, I often get called Dover and being the brew boy at my old work (apprentice) it was decided the plate stood for Dover Brew Up

That really surprised me, I genuinely thought there was a Ben Dover joke coming there
