At Any Price

Ross Chorlton is a lifelong car enthusiast, and his interest in personal number plates is equally keen. Ross is one of those number plates fans who shares his enthusiasm with the rest of the family. In addition to his own personal registration, OO05 ROS, which he displayed on his new Toyota Corrola, Ross purchased an initial plate for his wife Amanda.

“Her full name is Amanda Louise Chorlton and her birthday is November 20th. We bought N20 ALC from Regtransfers.
The pate is perfect for her, and we thought the price was very reasonable.”

In January 2008, Ross and Amanda inherited some money when Ross’s mother sadly passed away, and they found themselves able to afford a very nice car. Ross purchased a BMW 135i M Sport Coupe, but somehow his OO05 ROS plate didn’t quite seem to suit it.

“It just wasn’t right for this superb car; I needed something very special. While I was waiting for the new car to be delivered, I did a lot of searching.

Eventually I found RAC 3D, which was perfect! RAC are my initials, for Ross Alexander Chorlton, and the 3D looks like ‘ED’ at the end, which spells “RACED”. It is ideal for such a fabulous fast car. It was a no-brainer, I had to have it. I bought it immediately, and when I got the my car, the plate looked stunning on it.”

As Ross has now found his perfect personal registration, OO05 ROS is currently on a retention certificate, and Ross has put it up for sale. As for RAC 3D, Ross says:

“Certain reg numbers have to be purchased at any price. You might not get that opportunity again.”
