I lived in Wibsey, Bradford for a few years and the number plate I had always wanted for years appeared on a fiat punto.
My name is Carlo and this guy had C4RLO and then I found out he also had G4RLO which also looked the same as he had been naughty with the plate fixings.
I couldn't believe that probably the 2 best plates for my name were owned by a guy that lived close by, with the same (not very common) name as me.... and he had em on 2 bangers (sort of)
Oh well, my plate now starts with S3. I bought the plate and almost did a deal on a 1yr old S3, and then had a change of heart.....basically thanks to Nath at the Nurburgring. I really couldn't believe how capable the mk5 golf was on the track.
It really opened my eyes and I fell back in love with my Ed30.
Still love it now.
Thanks Nath
.....I'll stop writing now
