White Veyron F1 Plate

I was down in London the other week and saw a white Veyron with the private plate F1. It was like being in the presence of a celeb, so i thought id google it to see which famous person owns it. It only turns out that it a local business man to me and only three miles away from where i live. Never seen it in sunny Bradford before.

 

Was 'F1' not on a Merc SLR at some point?

Just found this: http://www.carreg.co.uk/number_plates/get_news/62

Yep, and the Veyron and plate are for sale too.

Hang on i'll just check the piggy bank, seems i'm a little short although today is pay day

 

i think everyone on cgti should donate 100 quid, then on cgti trackdays each member gets a go! so much better than a red letter day! swweetttt!

 

the f1 plate used to belong to chlmsford county council they all so had the plade 1f

 

Yeah that was his old car.

 

Like this one?

 

If the car is unregistered why does it have the plate on it?

 

F1 and 1F used to be on a couple black volvos that belongs to chelmsford county council a few years back

 

Considering that the Buggati Veyron has precisely fook-all to do with Formula 1, I would suggest that the most desirable plate for the car is in fact

 

isnt that the name of a flying bomb ze germans splatterd london with

 

surely VEYR0N would be a good plate

 

Not really doable in the UK though, our format includes at least two numbers.
I took 'V1' to mean 'Vey-One' = Veyron. Probably how the owner intended?

 

there isn't 2 numbers in v1?

 

I know, got that part wrong but trust me, your 'VEYR0N' is not possible using the UK system.
You could have
VEY 80N
VEY 10N
V37 RON
though.

 

F1 belonged to Essex County Council and it used to be on The Mayor of Southend's Offical Limmo for a while..... 1f was also on another offical car. Apparently they were a gift from someone years ago, cant remember who though....
