I still make words out of those three letter though .... or am I just odd ?? A neighbour's car that passes by our house regularly to go to his greenhouse has BRP as his registration so we call him Burp as we don't know his name. I'm glad I don't have CRP or FRT as we do tend to make words out of those too. I used to regularly see an HRT which would suit meEl Cid wrote:
They also never use any vowels in the plate which tends to rule out meaningful three letter words.

Re: old car plate
when I was younger & on family journeys, we played several games using numberplates - one was to make words out of the letters, keeping them in order & adding as few letters as possible so I know exactly where you're coming from !

If you remove a cherished number from a classic car with say SYD 1 on it DVLA issue an age related number to the car which then can never be removed and sold on.

To put it on retention or swopit the donor vehicle has to be mot'd/taxed. You cannot remove /put on retention from a no legal vehicle.

We must be as odd/sad as you Wicksey. My wife and I often make up names for Spanish plated cars we see by using the three letters.
