Or maybe TOWOME
Thought of another one WOISME

The best one I ever saw was BAABAA which was on a black Jeep Cherokee.
Or my own on my 924 Turbo IXIIIV but you have to be classically trained to know. I remember my buyer had no idea but his wife was on the ball.

A friend was staying at my place with his missus about 15 years ago and the aftermarket alarm / disabler in his Porsche had a flat battery and wouldn't start. No one had a replacement and he totally cracked it.

Offered me his black IXIIVIII for 5k.

One of those shoulda moments.

You mean his black 1110011100 for $1001110001000

Thanks for the number plate ideas, I decided on this

Couple of good articles in the weekend papers on the reality of EV's in Aus.

Cant seem to post up the links,maybe someone smarter with computers would be good enough to post them up.

One was in 'The Australian'.

The other in The Courier Mail,but probably is in other papers in other areas as well.

They both bring up good points about Ev's in Aus,not irrelavent information about what is happening with them in other places around the world.

Hackers tricked a Tesla, and it's a sign of things to come in the race to fool artificial intelligence - Science News - ABC News

Key points:

• Researchers show how white dots on a road could push a Tesla in autopilot into the wrong lane
• Tesla says drivers can always override autopilot, and "should always be prepared to do so"
• The research raises complex legal questions about tricking a computer versus hacking it

From the ABC today not strictly about EV's more Autonomous Cars, showing how they can be tricked.

Actually Elon Musk invited Hackers to hack a Tesla , if they could they get to keep the car. Pretty good strategy I think, so they can build in appropriate safeguards.

Still I'd be a lot less comfortable flying in a modern airliner than being in a hacked car. Apparently they can be remotely flown like drones in the event of aircrew being incapacitated. Imagine hackers winning a free 373 Max if they can breach the security protocols (well they might be giving them away soon anyway)
. Anyone remember MH370 !!

Tesla’s a semi autonomous- the driver has to be alert behind the wheel at all times, so unless the driver is breaking the law, a few white dots on the road don’t mean ****. Autonomous vehicles are many years away yet.

Interesting Comparison.

Landcruiser vs Tesla
