    Tool.

    he's using "L337 5P34K"... ie using a number in place of a letter, because he wasn't good enough to get the proper plate.

    sorry.

    I dont think he was 'not good enough' to get the plate. It was already taken..........of course and I do not think it was available to purchase at the time anyways. But.................you would have to be a TOOL to pay the $20K+, that the guy would probably want for the real WOG BOY plate here in QLD. :p:p

    well, um, that's kinda the point.

    put it this way, i see using silly UK-style methods for making up plates to get around the fact you couldn't afford the actual plate you really wanted about the same as putting ferrari badges on an MR2.
