wow, 30,000? I knew it was like this in the middle east, but wow I had no idea it was like that across the UK and parts of Europe? Even I had a hard time swallowing the $100 cost of custom plates for my Porsche and Miata here in the US... I will now stop my bickering :)

However did you shrug that off?

 

He already has it, Paulllll....

PMSL..............

OK I don't understand this (I live in the USA).  How can this license plate be worth this much?  Maybe this is a joke and it flew over my head!  😕

So photos like this are now history?   😂

Minus the cat

Yes, very much so..   I had to check who you were just now - I was worried!  😂

Here's the replacement.  Much less glamorous and about a quarter of the running costs..  more like it.
