that is a really good price, its just the format is cheap as there are three numbers, but for you it is perfect, you can clearly see your name in it.
Some plates mean basically nothing to onlookers even though they are personalised! The ones I wanted were £799 or very expensive for the really smart ones!

I was tempted for the Ibiza cupra, but there is no SEAT in Scarborough! Plus Ford parts are generally easier to get hold of and cheaper. The ST looks alot better in my opinion, and there are lots of parts out there to tune it!

Are u sure it was a cupra and not a FR? because the cupra is faster than the ST with 180 BHP! the FR have 150 BHP! anyway those ibiza are not that great in handling and also they don't look much different from a normal ibiza!

yeah definately the cupra. 180bhp and turbo. but deep down im a ford person! i wanted to test the cupra but couldnt find one anywhere to have a go in! so decided on the ST and i think i made the right choice! parts and tuning bits, defo the right choice!

yes good choice in term of handling and look but as tuning part not that sure! think it more easy to find engine mods for a seat especially turbo engine because they use VAG parts so there a lot of tuner around for it!
i finaly went for the seat i test drove both and found the st lacked in torque and i was a bit disapointed with the power . the seat seamed to pull alot better and for 400 quid can be chipped to 206 bhp . i must admit tho the st handled better and the interior was of better quality .

the seat have better low torque thats because the seat do have a turbo thing the ST sadly miss! all cars getting turbo now! the next ST should have a turbo to catch up with the rest! except the clio 197 or the Civic Tyre R who still have a N/A engine! but there rumour that the next sport clio could have the engine of the megane 225! will have to wait and see!
if I was living in UK I would have a private number plate!
