I have a new one! (I've been on an internetless vacation for the past 2 weeks & I missed the Downs so much [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img] ) Anyway, you could get a little pink sportscar that says NAZGIRL. If any of you haven't read the Nazgirls story, you should, because it's hysterical! It's somewhere on the forum, but I don't remember where *apologizes profusely*

I swear I saw a red van/truck (whatever you'd like to call it) with the license plate ROHAN. It drove off before I could take a good look at it, though.

OK. Me being in England, we have REALLY weird licence plates.
The old ones go: Letter-1 to 3 numbers-3 or 4 letters. The new ones go: 2 letters-2 numbers-3 letters. England sucks. The best LotR ones we could possibly get would be things like: M001 ERTH (MDDL=M001) L390 LAS E1 VES E1 VISH E1 VEN H08 BIT H4 LDIR H41 DIR S4 URON M4 NWE M31 KOR M3 LKOR B1 LBO B499 INS F3 RNY R1 NGS L07 RFRK (LotR Freak) G341 HIR (Gwaihir) B47 ROG (Balrog) And those are just the old ones! Wow! I can get quite a good selection out of these! I didn't realize until I started thinking! Here are some new ones! BR30 WNS (Barrow Downs) MD01 RTH (Middle-earth) LE90 LAS (Pretty obvious!) HO88 ITS BA99 INS OT79 RNG (O-One, T-Three. 7 and 9 Rings) ME11 RYN LF91 RLY (Elf Girly) SM34 GOL TH30 DEN BO90 MIR FA94 MIR AR49 ORN IS17 DUR MA11 ORN PA14 NTR (Palantir) HY91 ENE (Something Aragorn doesn't know about! Only Internet Tolkies would get this) LU14 IEN EL35 SAR ST91 DER (9 is R) LO79 FRK (LotR Freak) SH40 WFX (Shadowfax) BA79 OGS (Balrogs) HL35 DEP (HLMS DEP) (Helms Deep) RI29 RTH (Ringwraith)(2 is N) NA29 IRL (Nazgirl) (2 is Z) IH89 WEN (I hate Arwen) MA91 SUE (Nehawahaa! Mari Sue!) (no number for Y) GA91 STU (Gari Stu!) (For the above 2: I'd love to see these together in a driveway! I'd laugh so much!) ON39 ING (One Ring) RV32 DLL (Rivendell) RN75 GLN (Eryn Lasgalen) There are so many more, but I don't have time to think them up and put them here, so buh bye! Namárie! From Elróthiel, the Insane Elven Goddess of Hilariosity and Laughter!

I've posted this before, but I once saw a Canadian Liscence plate ONE-973
The numbers of course refer to the rings of power. I thought that was pretty cool.

I saw (yet another) license plate that said ERU on it. This makes a total of about five.

I want to get a jet-black Hummer (not the jeep, the big blocky 5-seater) and put "NAZGUL5" on the license plates, just because of the Cassie Claire diary.

In Virgina, I did see a Bilbo plate.
I'd definitley first go with my name..Hobtlas. I love the Smeagol/Gollum idea, very clever.

I saw within the last couple of weeks a license plate that said MERRY on it. If only the same person had another car who's plates said PIPPIN! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Liscense Plates! Cool! I love those, but I can't say I've seen any LotR ones. Mine would probably either be FIREFOT or FRODOLVS or something shortened for Frodo lives. Noro lim, that would be cool. Gollum/Smeagol is a good idea too.

Haha! "I brake for Balrogs" is a great bumper sticker!
If I get a car any time soon, and if my parents let me put vanity plates on it, I might put: FINWETK (Finwe The King or Finwe The Kitten, which, incidentally, is my AIM screen name)

Well, go for obscurity..
-MELKOR -MORGOTH -EOMER -EOWYN -SAMWISE -PIPPIN -MERRY -FRODO -BILBO -SAURON -RNGWRTH -KHAMUL -DNTHOR -FRMIR -BRMIR Wow, that's a lot that work. I'd better see someone adopt on of those. Next task: See how many names of Middle-Earth places or people are seven figures long or less.

Wow this is an old thread. The seventh post I made on the 'Downs is here. It doesn't seem that long ago...
Anyway, enough reminiscing. I went to a sort of last-day-in-an-apartment-with-a-really-great-view party yesterday evening given by a friend from church. When we got there, lo and behold, parked right behind our car on the street was a light blue BMW with the license plate GLDRIEL! I borrowed a digital camera from the hostess and took a picture of the liscence plate, but I don't have it to postat the moment, as the friend whose camera it was is now busy moving, and after that is going to World Youth Day in Germany, so she won't have time to send it to me for a while.

I can't help but make the pun: "CAR-WEN", be it actually C4R-WEN, CAR-W3N, or and unfortunate mix of the two.
I wouldn't mind "ILUVTR" either, really. |

bumper sticker
It may not be a plate, but I saw a bumper sticker just today at Barnes and Nobles which read "Fordo Failed! Bush has the Ring."
I know it's political (and that isn't very well welcomed here in the 'downs), but you can kind of apply that phrase in several ways. None-the-less it gave me a good laugh.

Wow, that's a funny picture. (And that coming from a Bush supporter(me) no less!)
Now, here's something that I was really excited about. I just got my new license plate a couple days ago. And it is: WLF 936! I was like 'SWEET'! My tag says Wolf! That is just too cool! Yet, if I could have a custom tag I'd probably put: BLKSWRD PIPPIN THEONE ISTARI MT DOOM

Mine would probably be something along the lines of "4 Ents".

Valesse, I saw that bumper sticker in my parts, too. It made me chuckle!
I also saw a tag-ISTARI.
