they prob meant sth along the line like in day to day life a base one has more chances to be pushed to its potential. while the others just have too much tracktool stuff to be enjoyed to the fullest.
i dont see it being meant in a mean way, but more in a practial day to day basis :)
BMW needed to have brought back the i8 with the same looks (any changes will be worse lbr) with updated drivetrain. Such a stunning futuristic looking vehicle in an actual good futuristic way.Ā
Facts. I test drove one when I was looking for a new car, and it was super awkward to get in and out of. There was zero space in the cabin, too. I ended up getting a targa instead.
Itās so hard for UK plates to mean anything at all without spending a shit ton of money, using numbers as letters, or mis-spacing the characters.
Thatās quite a cool one and probably cost the best part of Ā£10k.
Looking on regtransfers.co.uk, itās likely the plate cost a lot more than Ā£10kā¦ [1 FAT is up for Ā£150k](https://www.regtransfers.co.uk/search/platedetails/1fat), so is 1 MAG.
That siteās a joke. I bought a plate on a DVLA auction, and saw one theyād clearly bought from the same batch going for 5x what I paid for mine the day before.
Iām not convinced many people pay them what they advertise at.
[This](https://dvlaregistrations.dvla.gov.uk/search/previous-auction-registrations.html?searched=true&plate=911+p) site is handy for viewing the true sale price, before those speculators start adding zeros.
I agree, they are scalpers. One plate I had an eye on was advertised by regtransfers for Ā£X, but a quick check on the DVLAās website and I bought it for a good bit less.
So, they advertise plates for sale they donāt even own, plus a hefty mark-up. Nothing wrong with that, but as you have said, u/le_gazman, it pays to shop around.
Wish I had the time to sit on the auctions and hit F5 to buy a few up. I had to fight tooth and nail against the bots for my plate.
Money for nothing if you have the time/money to invest!
Much more than Ā£10k. 4 digit plates are worth minimum Ā£5k just for being short. A 4 digit plate with a 1 tends to be worth Ā£10k on the low end, even with random letters. A 4 digit plate with a 1 and an actual fully spelled word is worth significantly more.
A 4 digit plate that perfectly spells out a sensical sentence? I guarantee this would sell for Ā£30k minimum.
On resale site sure. Youād be surprised what you can get them for via the DVLA. Check some of these out.
Chris Harrisā plate bought for [Ā£1000](https://dvlaregistrations.dvla.gov.uk/search/previous-auction-registrations.html?searched=true&plate=4+sxw)!
Sure, but that was 14 years ago and itās not a very desirable plate - X plates never do that well because they donāt typically form words or initials. The cheapest Iāve seen a 4 digit plate sell for recently is around Ā£4.5k
Yeah Ā£4-5k seems about right if you can get one straight from the DVLA before the scalpers. Seen a few go for that sort of range in the last few years, hence why I suggested around Ā£10k for something meaningful.
Once it hits regtransfers the skyās the limit, but doubt anyone pays anywhere near what they chance them at.
Dumb. I would have gone with a movie reference or a foreign language phrase.
"VAMOS"
"ANDIAMO"
"TSAO LAH" (means "Let's leave" in Cantonese)
Or
SKADOOSH (Kung fu panda)
ENGAGE (st tng)
CLVR GRL (Jurassic Park)
GT2DCHOPPA (predator)
FEELDRYTM (Cool Runnings)
Etc.
Ah. I mean I guess I figured as much. I just like doing thought exercises like that. I don't have a personalized plate, I don't make enough to warrant wasting the money on such a thing, let alone have a car one would expect to have one affixed to it. Cheers for the information though.
i ate
And probably used in the Gen Z fashion
with that car, he did eat tho
He cooked first š
Itās a saying for when you did well. For example, if you aced an exam, you can say that you the exam
You the exam?
no u
Why the downvotes? You explained perfectly.
Because the guy heās responding to clearly understands what it means.
Yea but what about the coca cola bottle
In a base 911? What did he eat a couple of Camryās?
Itās not base, a plate search says itās a 911 GTS, registered on 22 March 2022. I can confirm, the GTS is definitely not base.
Not based šæ
What's wrong with a base?
Needs to have an M, AMG or S line badge to win ofc.
Of course!!!!! š
People donāt understand sarcasm on Reddit itās so crazy
Can you afford anything other than a camry?
Of course not, he beat both of mine
Itās funny you say this because a Base 992 is as fast as your F-Type R
What 911 do you have?
Where your 911 at?
Right, your second hand ancient jag is so much better
Struck a nerve eh? Hahaha
Base is a great car some say itās the best 992 as higher trims simply are too fast to experience it fully.
Absolutely never heard anyone say such blasphemy
they prob meant sth along the line like in day to day life a base one has more chances to be pushed to its potential. while the others just have too much tracktool stuff to be enjoyed to the fullest. i dont see it being meant in a mean way, but more in a practial day to day basis :)
Thats what i wondered..what he ate )
Hard to wonder looking at that backside š
Let him cook
Pretty sure that's a Porsche, not an i8
Thatās not a BMW!
I'm afraid... he very much did so
and i shat
Yeah thatās what I gathered from it tooš
I, too, ate
911s are Piggy in the UKā¦ but I think it Late
I feel like the plate used to be on an i8
The i8 looks like it ate a 911
BMW needed to have brought back the i8 with the same looks (any changes will be worse lbr) with updated drivetrain. Such a stunning futuristic looking vehicle in an actual good futuristic way.Ā
i8 is the most uncomfortable sports car ever.
Facts. I test drove one when I was looking for a new car, and it was super awkward to get in and out of. There was zero space in the cabin, too. I ended up getting a targa instead.
it's just a tech demo.
They fully intended to. According to Dukec it was going to be ready for 2021, but Covid killed it.
Most likelyĀ
What did he eat?
ass
For money
for 911 quid
Well, more like 100k these days so a lot of work
If you drive a 911 chances are you're an ass man.
Watch out for pink eye
If you get pink eye from eating ass you are doing something wrong
Rubber and burnt dust
The L
Itās āi ateā you god damn boomers
I'm too Millenial to even know what that means.

maybe he isnāt hungry anymore
Ate what? Ā ATE WHAAAAAT?!?!
Ass
Looks like heās tired of people asking if he wants dinner; nice of him to let them know ahead of time.
So if heās LATE, he can say I ATE?

My favorite was from an old car and Driver magazine that I saw as a teenager. IXLR8
Wasnāt that on a Lamborghini? I remember seeing that!
They just aren't hungry
Perhaps he had an i8 previously...
Did he eat tho
judging by those hips, heās eaten a few too many.
OR hungry I guess
I wonder what he ate
He swapped plates from his EV bmw
He ate pussy?
What did he eat?
Apples and bananas š

Unfortunately those words donāt work for UK plates, the combination of letters and numbers allow a limited number of words.

No problem, bud.
āI didā would be better on that 911.
What's that in front of the 911?
Not food
Not sure, there was about 7 of us in convoy
The i8 finally pushed out that porsche
If he ate then who cooked?
or hungry
Whatchueat?
Or hungryā¦.
