A mate of mine sent me this link https://dvlaauction.co.uk/auction/B259/1965SL

Great number but no good for my '66 Pagoda

I see this plate sold for £ 6,000.00

Bob, does your Pagoda now have a personal plate ?

Hello Ray, i'm not a fan of personalised plates, but i have to admit i was tempted to have a bid @ £ 1,500, for the benefit of the car of course, not for my vanity!

But, £ 6,000 plus commission, plus VAT, plus admin, i don't think so

Take care

Bob
