Default Dvla auction cosi plate

I know some of you hate the whole private reg thing but whilst bidding on a plate I want I found COS 116V (cosi 16v) currently at £300. Obviously itl fit on pretty much any rs registered on or after the old Vreg. I figured someone on here might be interested.
The auction finishes tomorrow and you will need to register online before you can bid.

It does seem cheap compared to some "cos" plates I've seen in the past.
I would have thought someone on here would be interested in it for the equivalent cost of a night out.

I was looking at that, with the fees etc if it went for £300 the actual price worked out at £480 so decided not to have a bid

Sold for £420 with only 2 bidders. Vat and transfer fees bump the prices up a fair bit but considering reg transfers want over 2 grand for a similar plate it's still a relatively inexpensive addition to a nice RS somewhere.

Still not bad for the price it went for.

but that says cosi (pronounced cosy, like when you're all wrapped up in bed), not cossie (like how you pronounce the shortened form of costume). horribly tacky and shit imo.
