Default New Reg Sorted at Last

I bought a pvt reg a few weeks ago now, it's taken ages for Cyrils plate to come off my car, then awaiting log book, then transferring mine over, then the number plate firm spelt my reg wrong lol so had to wait longer for my plates remaking, anyway just put em on and took a quick piccy.....What do you think to the reg to match the car ?

I really hope you have an escort cosworth lump in it, otherwise you need to check if YBB is still available to buy

No trainspotter mate, just know my cosworths - your plate says escort cosworth and your car says 3dr cosworth I assumed you had swapped the motor over, and so will anyone who knows these cars - people who dont know them wont even know what the plate means anyway

It still says it as well pal the V5 dont lie, and she is still about.

If you had actually ever done anything noteworthy like I did, rather than just hang on the coat tails of everyone else as you do, I would accept your "wit" as banter but just now it looks like "witless" much like yourself
