Gee lots of thought went into this design. That’s one ugly commemorative 100 year numberplate .

So no one will steal it after you paid a ridiculous $9000+ for it.

“soixante neuf” belongs to another era. I hadn’t seen anything referring to “69” as sexual in decades. However, not TEN decades. What the hell is the Centenary doing involving itself with this sort of wrinkly, unpleasant prurience?

Ok, I’ll bite; what is the significance of 069?

69 on its own maybe worth a tenner, but C069? Tuppence at a push.

Wine me, dine me and 69 me.
Not sure if the Kama Sutra is of help here or not.

I don’t get it? It’s neither naughty, rude, nor funny? Wouldn’t give you tuppence for it.

“C-069 Commemerative Numberplate” – there’s a meme where there should be a memo – so the sixteen year old boy is more hipster than budding bureaucrat (or perhaps his mind was on other things).

“%20 “

Really? 20% might be more like it. Normally the mistake is people putting the dollar sign after the value, e.g. 45$…..
