No, it says Vitsam (which actually turns out to be a name! There's someone on LinkedIn called "Vitsam Chin" )

Private plate for me with my initials on

I changes cars quite often so it save remembering new registrations but transferring it does become expensive. I also have the domain m6jkk.com as well however I haven't done anything with that yet.

TBH if I didn't already have the plate I wouldn't bother buying one now.

I've got B11 DJA which I bought myself for my 21st birthday, although it hasn't yet made it onto the car and is still on retention. The initials are mine and it wasn't until someone asked what the B11 bit meant that I realised my birthday is the 11th...that bit was pure coincidence.

I have SXI 45 which is a plate originally from NI. Absolutely no meaning to it, I just wanted it to be nice and short, and hide the age of the car.

Some have said it's "sexy as", others have said "sexy 45". Well to me it doesn't... it's simply SXI 45.

But having said that, I will be 45 this year...!

My car is registered in France, so no way to change the registrations unless I change my address... (so it's option 1 for my vote)
Funny part of the plate "DST" letters which used to be the previous name of the equivalent of the MI5... Sometimes, when I would arrive to a gathering with friends, they would say: Take cover, here comes the DST

My brother got a bargain a couple of years ago, it cost whatever the DVLA charge for their cheapest reg.
Can you guess his name ?
