> i refuse to pay another retainer on it and Retention fee is only £25/year AFAICT but the DVLA site is a little wordy and doesn't have nice tables showing costs, at least not that I have found. Also can't figure out from the DVLA site if you can transfer a retention document to another person. I bet you can only assign it to a vehicle.
> how will you put it on your car though? Can't but could go on the other halfs 02 Fiesta. Best would be a transfer of retention, if allowed.

I thought that was one of the combinations the licensing authorities ruled should not be issued, along with S3 MEN, VAG 1N, Fxxx UCK and all Leeds numbers ending xxx BUM, CUM etc.
As a boy growing up in Leeds I never saw BUM, CUM or anything remotely rude (and I was looking!), although Dad had PUM and DUM.
There's a doctorate thesis in this, I reckon.

I saw one today, young girl in a hatchback, reg was S? TEF. So I'm guessing you're called Steph, right? Well what is that number plate doing, cos it doesn't spell Steph, it says S? TEF, which is not the same. You don't have a number in the middle of your name, so why do you think S? TEF is, like, "yours"? It isn't.
There's a body-kitted Escort, bright red, spoiler, all the ICE advertised on the outside, parked up on a flatbed in a repairers I pass every day. The number plate says GAV, which I guess is the guy's name, but someone has cheekily altered it with a permanent marker to GAY. Oh dear.

Hey, maybe the rich twat had another at home with RES1N........? > Badger. I didn't think many Ferraris were made of fibreglass, just one or two models and not even for their whole model run. I don't know about modern ferraris as I don't have much interest in them.
As for "rich twat", generally you'd have to be a bit odd to buy a fezz as there's much better cars to be had for much less money, but considering you can get a running fezz for £10,000 and up these days there's plenty of people in here who could afford several! A new Range Rover would cost the same as a second-hand good-condition decent spec fezzer.
I knew a chap once who had 5 Ferrari engines.. Not Ferrari cars, just the engines! Never figured out why. They are nice to look at, but considering that's all you can do with them, it seemed a bit odd. Kept them in a shed covered in oil rags, never did anything with them.

This was a modern-looking thing, similar to an F40 in style I think, but then I couldn't tell you one from another - they do nothing for me I'm afraid. What's the point of all that bhp at that high an rpm, better to have torque low down, I say! ;-)

A new > Range Rover would cost the same as a second-hand good-condition decent > spec fezzer. Ok, point taken. I was working on the assumption that it was worth around £100k+ or somesuch area, seein' as it looked pretty new to me. Never had the inclination to go into a ferrari dealers and ask the prices, seein' as there ain't any in Morayshire anyway. LOL.

Hmmmmm.... re-cam for torque and fit to a 110..... where's he live? Second thoughts, each one's probably worth a lot more than my 110! Badger.

What's the point of all that bhp at that high an rpm, better to have > torque low down, I say! ;-) Yeah like a nice big Chevvy V8 in a small spaceframe chassis, say, for example, an Ultima GTR, a car that I try to work into every conversation where possible, apart from those with bank managers.. Almost worth selling the house for, if it didn't belong to Northern Rock.

LOL. £65K will get you a high-spec modern-ish one that's done less than 10K miles, but it would also get you a Fraser-Nash open-wheeled vintage racer, and I know which is more fun! Can't afford either unfortunately..

Can't go an an 02 Fiesta, has to be a 54 plate or newer!
