I've no idea, I guess it's worth what someone will pay.

Personally I don't think I could ever have enough money to spend some if it on a Vanity Number Plate.

www.newreg.co.uk has loads, starting at £475. seems like a decent price if that's your cup of tea...

RIB XX wouldn't be irish as it ends in letters. It would have been R1 BXX. Which may have been grabbed cheap and worth a bit now. My kids bought me the Richard Hammond (short bloke, Top Gear) book on cool and uncool motoring. If you drive an X5 with a private plate you are as cool as Jade Goody!

Anyone interested in a nice X5 complete with plate?

I've never grasped the pricing logic behind these private plate things. Why should RIB 520 be £500 more expensive than RIB 535? And please don't tell me it's because a BMW 520 is cooler than a BMW 535. And I'm sure RIB 757 would be a lot more valuable to a RIB owning Boeing 757 captain than a Beemer 520 owner? Or is it perhaps that Boeing 757 captains have more going on in their lives than worrying about personalised number plates

It has to be a good one to be worth having.

Your initials followed by the number 1 perhaps.
Or something amusing perhaps.

One of those things to spend your money on when you've bought everything else but still have nothing to do!
Or have bought an early varient of a car and are trying to disguise its age by putting a cheepie plate in it.

RIB XX. Guilty, Its mine. I bought it for a number of reasons. Firstly it take away the fact that my Land Rover was new and I was feeling embarrassed that I had spent so much money on a new car and sending out all the wrong signals to my customers(one reason why I let my car stay so dirty). Secondly, and the reason for RIB is that, although today my boat is made of wood, I have had many RIBs in the past and I am a big enthusiast. If that is not enough justification, for the last couple of years, I have held a significant interest in the ribbing industry. I am delighted to see so much interest in it and if any one wants to make me an offer I can’t refuse, I won’t be offended, I don’t mind changing it, I have a few more.

the cost of a plate depends on how much you want it. In a recent dvla auction AW55OME was reserved for £950 but sold for £6,100. If your name is common reg prices are higher- every one chasing the same name.....I got lucky not many Geds in this world
