Private Plates...

[Yanto]

Toying with the idea of a CSL related plate.....seen one that is vaguely relevant that I think would set the car of well without the need to strategically move the screws to make a number / letter look like something different...not mega cost - will come in at a shade over £500.

In two minds, never really been that fussed, but I keep coming back to it...

Thoughts ? Do many of you folks have one...CSL related or other ?

i think private plates are a good idea and can be an investment, although i dont like the idea of modifiying it to look like something else. think plates with C5L or CSL in them look smart.

[cslgirl]

I would also like one. When I saw Silverbullet's plate with the csl on it, I thought it looked good and made my mind up. The one I wanted was csl 427 but at £2,200 it's a bit out of my price range.

I did then think of C51 GRL but just checked and its GONE!!!!!!!:bigcry:

I think it makes the car stand out with a private plate which can be a good thing, or a bad thing depending how you drive lol.

ETA I also really liked the plate L8 APX, a guy with a csl had it although can't remember who.

You can pick a *** CSL plate up for £250 upwards from DVLA or the likes of. There is a few CSL related plates on here from memory, inc moi. Give us a clue..

Agreed on the modifying Tino - the one I am of thinking is *** CSL

Yep KK - this is £375 + VAT+ transfer...total is c. £520.

Just off to convince missus that this (and of course the bag of sand for Cosmicboys CSL share ;)) is a good idea :hahaha::hahaha::hahaha:

C51 GRL - that would have been perfect :banghead:

think! L8 APX is on Tom's (NZ_M3)

Seems a little overpriced unless the first 3 digits *** are relative, as like I say you can pick up for £250+ via DVLA/ other. Where is this advertised? If not DVLA check DVLA as most companies advertise plate higher without owning and then buy from DVLA Direct anyway making a small premium.

Great tip KK - its there and its £399 inc VAT and transfer - large drink on me when I see you....(I was looking at Elite)

Now I've got even less of an excuse !! :hahaha:

yep worth checking with DVLA, others sometimes SEEM cheaper but when you get to the bottom figure or check out they are normally not.

i like the reg 'P1 CSL' but its a bit £6000ish. M3 CSL even better :whistle:

no, removing plate to save weight however is in the plans:thumbs:


have to say i dont really get CSL plates or GT3 plates, i mean the cars have got a friking badge on to tell you what they are so why write it all over the number plate:banghead:
