Nope on either count, my plates are AKM33G, dad wanted to call it Achmeg, as in it was Achmeds girlfriend. I should never have showed him Achmed the Dead Terrorist :p

May apply to TD5 powered square vehicles, although not mine.

Hmm, hadn't thought of that so nope.
My Td5 isn't chipped, but it does push along nicely. :p

Lots of people want beer it seems

Charlie.... the letters on the number plate are CSK and being an old range rover owner the initials CSK have special meaning, So Charlie it was.

if this is right the beers are Pauls!!

The way he stuck out a big hand and
Said with a grin "Big Joe's the name
And this here rig's called Phantom 309"
Well I asked him why he called his
Rig such a name, but he just turned to me
And said "Why son don't you know this here
Rig'll be puttin' 'em all to shame, why
There ain't a driver on this
Or any other line for that matter
That's seen nothin' but the taillights of Big Joe
And Phantom 309"

heres a version I bet many of you didnt know existed :)

I wanted to call one of our boys George, but was overruled, so I applied the name to the Disco, and refused to be overruled!:cool:;)

Well, all of mine have names, the the 2a is "Aggie" a-la-snail,the 85 Rangie is "Linus" from the letters on the rego,the D1 is "RUU" from the rego, and the recently acquired Lightweight is "Brunei" after where it was stationed.

cheers.
