F13 ANT

F14 ANT

F16 ANT

F19 ANT

I personally like F16, they are all the same price.

Brokers will advertise plates that they dont even own or have permission to advertise - if someone shows an interest they will contact the owner and tell them someone wants your plate - and make a huge margin in the process

I saw one of my plates advertised once, cheeky bstards

Unless you really have to have ANT as the last 3 letters, I wouldnt pay £785 for any of those plates.

Have you had a look at plates with your initials?

Mine are MOB and I bought R5 MOB, V5 MOB and Y5 MOB for between £250 and £399 each

Have you thought of ANT XXX X may be cheaper than X XXX ANT and will probably look better as your name will be first!

As above you could go with initials, harder if like me you only have two initials!

I'd really quite like a plate but if I got one I'd only have NZ1 (thousands upon thousands of pounds) or NZ1811 (never seen it) or NZ1188 (never seen it)

When I very nearly bought a TVR I really wanted M155 TVR, until I realised I couldn't put it on a D reg car

AJV ones are around £400 to £500 for one number (eg E2 AJV)

So not a huge difference in price to ANT

I like the letters AJV better than ANT lol, though if you went with AJV -

AJV 1, 12, 123 (any numbers) would look a lot better than X X/XX/XXX AJV as the latter would just look like a normal plate!

I was just thinking if i ever wanted to sell it would be more appealing as ANT as a wider market.

Im not so keen on general plates like ''F16 ANT''

''ANT 1'' would be cool. Or ''1 ANT''

I have a similar plate but cuz it aint that cool, and has my mothers initials i aint going stick it on my car?

Might do when she gets a bit older. (The car)

I wanted years ago for my RS Turbo ''H1 2RBO'' Hi turbo but again it aint that good a plate.

250.
