Is it bad luck...

To buy a private registration that would perfectly match a car your don't own but hope to maybe own one day??

I've always been tempted to buy up say "V8" / "V10" and my initials which I don't think could be tempting fate as they don't really relate to any specific car... This one however is an exact model and then initials. Plus its only £500. :lol:

ETA - actually just having looked they are going up in value and there are only 8 for sale in the UK so maybe it is bad luck!!

Sounds like setting a goal 8-) you would need to get the plates made up and stick one on the wall somewhere so it reminds you until you get to stick it on the car

:D

Wouldn't be until back end of next year at the earliest anyway. By that time they'll have gone through the roof and will be completely unaffordable :(
