I'm going to decorate it like this without telling him before he collects it.

I'm now curious why someone bought a registration that looks like "Jill's Nipple"

Dagnabit, now I'll have to think of a reg for Gav
purchasement, how faded/lacquer peeled is the red?

No sign of lacquer peel but it does look a bit faded compared to the ladybird above. I'm not even sure if they're painted or self-coloured plastic ?

I'm cracking on with fixing mechanical stuff for now and hoping to do handover at the weekend.

GAV 6L

Nice placeholder for a future ls2 v8 conversion?

I thought you could have (smart) AR53 GAV, but for some strange reason I don’t see any AR53 plates available.

Or a future career as an auctioneer?

I've been far too slow here but that is still good to go without a LS; GAV .6L

The car is actually 599cc. So if he changes his name to Jeremy:

(side note, the Smart is 599cc, the Bentley is 5998cc, the difference is only "8" !)

No need for a name change, Merc made it so; https://dvlaregistrations.dvla.gov.uk/b ... &price=599
