    I’ve got a feeling it might be something else that she loves !!

    Actually she did,my initials plus “WBA” and I hated it.

    Ostentatious load of b o l l u x,who wants to know your f kin name when you’re driving......unless you’ve cut them up!?

    Let mine go with the car when I sold it.

    I remember in the 70's when couples were driving around in cars with name stickers on driver and passenger windows i.e Richard and Tracey. You would cringe now at the thought!

    Times have changed now so how about stickers - Elton and David or Tom and Dustin

    Worked with a bloke in the Lye (you may have seen it Mick) he had an old Moggy Minor with one of those old black square number plates, the number plate was ADH
    10 S


    He transferred the reg' on to a modern yellow plate and it read ADHIOS, trouble is he put it on one of these.

    Ex Motorbike racer Steve Parrish had PEN 15 on his Merc . The snobby locals in his village tried to get it banned

    Was that your car and crumpet Minn?

    I swear to god I remember both!

    I remember the ADIOS number plate well.

    I had “Mick” and Kerry” on a strip above my Morris Marina windscreen......she was the daughter of ex Baggie Archie Styles who died earlier this year ( nice bloke was Archie )

    My old man used to joke about all the name changes on the passenger side,you could see the outline of the previous s h a g pieces name after I’d “moved on” :-//

    My last car was PRO3 WBA, but when I changed it, I did not pay to have the number transferred, albeit I have retained the number.
    My son in Canada had a birthday present from his wife of a number plate...WBA... No numbers, just WBA. He had it on his works van.

    One day whilst driving around Calgary and stopped at some busy traffic lights, a couple of guys shouted out to him, from a car stopped alongside him, that they were Walsall fans! No opportunity to chat further as the lights changed and all went off in carious directions.

    Small world

    Did you work at the Bronx Min? - the ADHIOS number plate is still going strong by the way - Owner named Alan, I worked with his wife.

    Swedish number plates have 3 letters and then 3 figures (ABC 123). Therefore, quite a few WBA out there, not mine unfortunately.
