Default Personalised plates

Inspired by another post here, I thought I would check out availability of a few options. MY54 ZTT would be ideal but not available. GB54 ZTT is there, at 499 quid
The DVLA site I used said "from 80GBP", yeah, ok, 500 up for ZTT ones. And that's peanuts compared to personal name ones.
I'm sure I can live my original plate
Just wondering what sort of money club members have or would be prepared to spend to personalise their reg ?

I have 3 plates, one is my initials KGW 563A on retention, Bumble has SXI 5380 and my van has my business on it RK04 YOU (RK INTERIORS) but all were under £250.00.
If the right plate came along I may pay £500 ish but no more.

Used to have SPY 922R ( cost £200 in 1989!) and this passed with the car to my mother. Car ended up scrapped after bump and we forgot to retain....

Also had ROY 323W which is my surname. Also cost £200 in I think 198? Lost that in my divorce settlement....grrrrrrr.... She sold it and last time Imchecked it is still running around on something..

Would I buy one again

Probably not

Now that's an idea...would be cheaper up here ...can do that for free unless intending to defraud....

Mr W329 UOF has a certain ring to it.....

I have (had) more money than sense money. So I bought X1DRW for £999 when X registrations were released, DRW1X for about £1500 in a DVLA on line auction (I originally asked to buy it so they put it in an online auction) and 999DRW for about £2500 after a live auction and it failed to sell. Are they an investment?? I could have sold them for more than I paid for them but....I have kept them!
I hope I don't take to much flack!
