I know private plates are not to everyone's taste, I'm at two minds too!

Bear in mind I'm in Hong Kong and have one of a handful of Escort Cosworth's here! Maybe COSWORTH or FORD RS???

EDIT: Just seen you put M4RIA not RLA.
You are right about the plate though mate maria couldnt use an 'I' as there not allowed so would have to go with a 'L'

i would only choose a actual word or a abbreviation of one like the escoz above, as i think you look like a cock in a car with a plate that if you change a imaginary few letters itll look like what you want to say or if you squint enough at eventually you believe it says it lol
