A good plate for 06

It is where your registered postal address is. ie, where you live at the time the documentation is done is the county letter you get. Unless of course he lives in Dublin, but parents still live in Mayo or something, and he never bothered changing his postal address.

Personally, I like low numbers - they're a bit more 'exclusive' e.g. 06-D-10, 06-D-15, etc etc

Think about it - how often do you see a low reg number?!

Failing that I would opt for an even number ... 06-D-100, 06-D-200, etc etc

The more numbers the better makes it harder for people to remember in road rage events eg 06 D 39736 and may also be taken down incorrectly in the event of a parking ticket.

You can't have "002", it would just be "2". You would have to space it out (illegal) like 06-LM-1 002

I think 06-D-1 is reserved for the Mayor of Dublin? Could be the same for other counties

Well I know that in Cork some of the Cs go on Citroens, so you have 06 C 2 etc

but i wonder if the lord mayor gets a Citroen CI instead of a Mondeo as this car has only recently been launched.

I don't think any Lord Mayor will be driving about in a little two-door car!

The first reg each year is reserved for the Lord Mayors in Cork,Limerick and Waterford. .....i.e. 06-C-1, 06-L-1, 06-W-1.

we have lord mayors??? ....thats news to me!

is it another person that just shakes peoples hands and cuts ribbons? ? ..*cough*MaryMcAleese*cough*

if so he doesnt deserve a fancy plate

Low numbers are purchased by people for prestige cars, you dont see a low number on a fiesta. What I have noticed is that some people have purchased a second hand car from abroad and fitted a low number that was never issued. I thought that you could not do that. I guess they dont want anyone to know they are driving an import, but a car originally registered here new. So far i noticed a glanza with two numbers and a tvr with three numbers. If they arrived here new, they must have cost an arm and a leg to buy, coupled with VRT and vat.

I've seen low numbers on 'everyday' cars, e.g.
Astra with ##-KE-1 number,
Seat Alhambra with ##-LS-7, etc etc

Thats sounds very iffy alright !
They must be changing chassis/engine/reg number from a crashed car to a recent import ?!?
