Personal registration plates! Which one?

Hi guys, been a while since I have been posting here.

I want to have a cool registration tag for my 550 and have been considdering these:

Which one would you choose? Or something else? Can be six digits if I keep my small front plate or seven digitalt if I get a std big tag as is in the rear of the car.

Thanks!

Erik

Not at all a bad suggestion! But somehow, I dont want to write V12 allll over the car. People who know, they know and people who don’t, might not need to know either... thanks.

 

Ok! How is 550FER vulgar?

 

Well, beautiful is in the eye of the beholder, so it is always a risk that someone don’t like it... I had to Google Land of entchantment and found a good promo video of your beautiful state. Reminds me a bit of Norway to be honest. I kind of like the 550 GTO as it has a very clear lunk to the 250 GTO which in my opinion is the ”origin” of the 550, although the 550 never was homologated. Or was it with the Prodrive / FIA racing? (sorry, I don’t know the correct name of the class it competed in). This ”incorrect” Mosel description, will leave people with knowledge on Ferrari start to diskussion the matter, and then come to the same conclusion as myself, which is the fact that a 550 is not too far away from the best and most expencive car of all time, the 250 GTO!

 

Vulgar is also in my opinion in the eye of the beholder. Your car looks brilliant!

 

No bad suggestions here! Yes, the personal tag can be from two to seven digits. There are quite a few now with their initials from their name, which is not bad either, as the personal tag is an addition to the real registratorn number and can be moved to another car and is varit for ten years at a fixed cost of 6.000 crowns or about 680 Us dollars. Not bad compared to the British system there you got brokers selling all kinds of strange tags... MARANLO or MODENA would also be possible. We’ll see what I choose, but I like 550 GTO alot.

 

I recognize that I have to be really careful not to insult someone with my personal tag.... everybody has some kind of idea in some way... The best thing is that with a personal tag, I think the «speed camera police» in foreign countries will have a hard time finding the owner of the car when there is no S for Sweden in the front plate...and in Monaco which is multi lingual with people from all kind of countries, they have to see the back of the car to tell where I am from. Now, as Norway this year also introduced personal tags, it will be very hard to see it is a Swedish car People in Norway look down on cars from other countries, just because they cost half the price. Norwegians are stupid enough to pay the same price for the tags as for the car itself. For example (the worst example) a Chevrolet Surburban cost about 50.000 dollars in the US Brand new. In Norway, it costs about 200.000 dollars with the taxes, which is calculated out of a very complicated formula of the price, the weight, the displacement, the age, of it has AC or not, and its pollution (grams of CO2 per km.). I HATE THIS SYSTEM. With a personal tag I can drive my Swedish Ferrari all over the world including Norway if I live outside Norway. If I live in Norway and I drive it, the tax man will (with no exceptiobs) impound that car and add 60% to the actual taxes which is now on my 19 year old car about 25.000 dollar! I just don’t accept that! As I have my boat sale company in sweden, and live outside Norway, I am on the right side of the law, but I also want to visit Norway with that car, and with a personal tag, it is less likely to «go under the radar» as the little S instead of the N is the only way to distinguish it from a Norwegian car... Any questions why I moved?

 

How is RAY = king?
Funney thing is, I also have a Jag like that and a 550. A proof of good taste for little money... The Jag statys in South Florida. Haven’t driven it much the last year. Have been working a bit on the Maserati instead.

 

Not at all a bad idea. It reminds me of a friend who had a F50 GT... no I like 550 GTO. I guess the only thing I need is a Prodrive engine with twelve throttle bodies and Fabio super F1 exhaust....
