Former NXMX5:- C20 SSF - looks like CROSSF.

saldous:- I paid substantially more than £250 for it. I require £1k for it.

You would need 'C120 SSF' for it to really look like CROSS F.

If you haven't debadged, it says CROSSFIRE just above the number/licence plate.

Would be interested in '1 AN' or '7 AN' if you have them.

Hi English Bob. I am selling the plate as my XF is going back soon, I don't deal in number plates.

'1 AN' would cost you thousands though!

Just curious, how does registration tags work over there. That seems insanly expensive 1k in pounds. 2 thousand bucks is not chump change. vanity plates go for 170 in IL. Just curious why they are so expensive and there seems to be a market for them.

I had the chance to buy '7 AN' for £9,000 in 1998 or 1999 and didn't bother cos my cars at the time were old. I think it would look nice on the XF, but I can't trace who owns it. I doubt I could afford '1 AN' if it ever became available.

Hope you sell your plate.

It's not uncommon for plates to go for over £10,000 check out the DVLA site
