I have been considering a Vanity Plate on the Vanquish. Normally I shun these types of things because they can seem a bit pretentious. But it has occurred to me that driving a Vanquish already qualifies for same issue.

Was thinking of something with a Bond theme:

MI 6, Q BRNCH, OO SVN, DBL OH

Sadly, BMT 216A won't fit the allowed formats.

Any other thoughts on good Bond themed variants? Anyone want to share their thoughts and plates?

 

Q Brnch is the least pretentious. Not always good to draw unfavorable attention to the car.

 

If you don't need the space then BMT216A will fit, and that's a great plate.

 

The allowed formats in Illinois won't permit BMT216A or even BMT 216.

 

AUMEMBR

 

MO, unless it is a Bond car, then don't do it.

 

A subtle reference to The first Bond film where the Aston Martin appeared. Good Suggestion.

 

I think it's more of a reference to Austin Powers #3, where Goldmember was a character.

 

Terrible idea.

Actually the rotating number plate on the DB was BMT 216A of course but also LU 6789 which could work, and 4711 EA 62 which is probably too long.

Maybe too subtle? Not many recognize BMT on mine actually, which I like.

 

Ideally you'd want one that was difficult for members of the public to remember as you flash past at one and half times the speed limit

 

BMT216A, tell us how you came to acquire that revered plate? Were you first off the mark a few decades ago, or did you sell your house to buy it?

 

Vanity plates are dirt cheap in the US. I'm guessing less than $100?

 

BMT 216A was the plate number for the first DB5 ever built I think, so IMHO should be reserved for DB cars.

 

BMT 216A is great. Can't do it.

Same with LU 6789

I'm seriously considering MI 6 or OO SEVN

But maybe I just leave it alone. Car is showy enough without it.

 

This.

The car, all by itself (and thanks to decades of product placement) IS a Bond reference.
