CarMad Posted January 30, 2014 Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 It could be someone from the Wiliams team surely, with F1 stickers on it. Frank maybe or his daughter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewNiceMrMe Posted January 30, 2014 Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 I've no idea....because I've clicked the picture 3-4 times on different occasions in the last 20 minutes or so...and it just opens the picture window and the GIF spins, but nothing ever loads...

jimdiesel Posted January 30, 2014 Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 Why would someone from Williams Grand Prix Engineering have a F1 sticker and be driving an RR when the engine partner is Mercedes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarMad Posted January 30, 2014 Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 Probably because the image was taken last year when Mercedes wasn't the engine supplier maybe and as they are buying the engine its not like they are getting cut price cars with the deal is it?!?

Tipex Posted January 30, 2014 Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 There is a Smart car near me that has full F1 corporate livery, and an F1 number plate, made to look like a pace car, it's owner is simply an F1 fan, it could just be a fan.

Tipex Posted January 30, 2014 Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 Wonder if she's declared the bonnet ornament to her insurers, most won't cover you if you add one of those these days, hence why Jags no longer have them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewNiceMrMe Posted January 30, 2014 Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 Those bonnet ornaments are all the rage with the upper classes and aristocracy. I was once at Malton BMW when a new 7 series belonging to a triple barrel named member of the aristocracy was being prepared. His family had the same ornament placed on every car they bought. They actually removed the BMW badge on the front and in its place went a.... Duck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M8CKN Posted January 30, 2014 Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 There is a Smart car near me that has full F1 corporate livery, and an F1 number plate, made to look like a pace car, it's owner is simply an F1 fan, it could just be a fan. My mate has F1 GUY on his Fezza. Bought it at auction. As his name is Guy it's a good plate for him, and probably a good investment although he said he will never sell it.

drpellypo Posted January 30, 2014 Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 Amazing how much more that plate is worth than another with the same amount of characters but not the number 1. I have P5 ODR about to go on my car which I paid £250 all in for from the DVLA site. My mate has P1 SKN and his was £1,200. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drpellypo Posted January 30, 2014 Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 Obviously F1 ups the value again, but any letter with a 1 next to it cost as much as ten times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Posted January 30, 2014 Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 P1 scooby drivers would like that plate. Plus P1 as in Position 1 would make it more valuable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tipex Posted January 30, 2014 Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 My T1 plate was 6k after auction fee's, what it's worth now is entirely irrelevant though, as it's not, and never will be, for sale, I've been made offers for it from dealers though, and it's value has increased substantially. I'd never bank on a number plate going up in value though, especially anything newer with the current format. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewNiceMrMe Posted January 30, 2014 Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 Mine was £299. That said, it is worth around £600 now, apparently. I bought it in 2004. There are better investments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
