Specialty License Plate ?


Recommended Posts

Yeah I like it too. Had I thought of it too originally I might have gotten it instead of XFLOW7, but I like XFLOW7 too and the car's been XFLOW7 for five years now, so I don't see changing it.   http://www.usa7s.com/aspnetforum/images/emoticons/smile5.gifxflow72006-10-23 18:27:04

Being the humble person that I am I opted for "SLOMOVE".

 

I know that there are many much more talented track drivers than me (and many slower ones, too who believe they are fast)

 

Unfortunately I found the license plate did not give me any credit with the California Highway Patrol :cuss: :cry:

Of course you are referring to the British Kit Car (properly:ack: ) pronounced

CAT URR HAM :D

Yup, thats how us 'Mericans :flag: with our archaic, unevolved Kings English would pronounce it. :D

I have test driven 2 Caterhams owned by brits. I bought the 2nd car I tested. Both owners pronounced it Kate-trum (Hence K8-rum7). Who wants an obvious vanity plate?.

 

When I called the first owner, after seeing an ad, I said I was calling about the Cat-tur-ham. He had no idea what I was talking about. After many amusing miscues we finally connected.

 

Wasn't it Oscar Wilde who said US & Briton were 2 countries separated by a common language?

Don't live by an Oscar Wilde quote!

 

He also said:

"America is the only country that went from barbarism to decadence without civilization in between."

and

"To disagree with three-fourths of the British public is one of the first requisites of sanity."
