    Just saw a black Bentley GT with the plate MEDIA parked up around Blackfriars. Where does the bidding start?

    It has got to around that sort of figure, at least £30k.

    I understand your need to be discreet but was the owner of the plate a household name?

    Thats an awesome plate. I've got pictures of a white Diablo VT with the plate S 007 but that one is just brilliant!

    I seem to remember a Lamborghini Espada with the plate J007. Might even have a photo somewhere.

    Yes, that was my old Espada.
    Number is now on an SLR.
    If you have any pictures, I would love to see some, as my pics were stolen in a house burglary a few years ago.
    I still have this one.

    And this is completely un-related to the white diablo with S 007? If so, thats pretty strange, both white as well!

    S OO7 is on a Bentley Arnage now.
    Incidently, OO 7 used to be floating around London on a white Rolls Royce.
    Also, Kahn from V12 Cars has E OO7.
    I still think that my J OO7 was the best (J for James)

    What would your valuation on the 007 007 plate be?

    All numbers on a plate would be a diplomatic plate, so the number probably has no value as you could only use it as a foreign dignitary

    My estimate for 007 007 is about £75 - £100k.

    I've seen J 8OND on an Aston DB7 usually parked between Sunbury and Richmond.

    Its unusual to have O's in plate that refer to the letter, most refer to the number. In this case with 007 OO7, it has two of each, very unusual.

    I have a plate on my Clio Dimma with plate M91 OOL.

    But I'm thinking the first two 0's are letters and the secong two 0's are numbers so i think this is a genuine plate. Could be wrong though.

    I was coming back from a trip to Belgium a few weeks ago and got passed on the motorway by a DB9 with the registration plate "JB 007" - that has to be the ultimate plate for an Aston, though it really should be on a DB5! :D

    The number is actually OO 7007, issued by Essex C.C in 1962.
    Value wise, I would think about £30k.
    That J8 OND one is nice. Similar sort of value, i would think.

    I have found one head on shot and another small part front shot, parked next to another red Espada. Will pm you tomorrow with scan details.
    OO's seem to be quite popular with Lambo's. I have pictures of a Urraco with plate EOO 39

    I'd agree with that.

    Would it have been J8OOT? Dont think JB 007 is a legal UK plate.

    That would be fantastic, if you can send the pics of my old Espada.
    As I said, most of my pics of the car were stolen when some young oiks burgled my house a few years ago.
    I remember the Urraco EOO 39. I do believe that the owner still has it.
    Many thanks.

    JB 007 was probably a foreign number, as it does not conform to any UK number.
    Incidently, J8 OOT is on a Saab 9000, with the T made to look like a 7.
    I seem to remember seeing a picture of an Aston Martin with a foreign plate JB 007 a while ago, possibly Belgian or French!

    Could it be a Jersey Number i.e. J 8007 or am I try to teach my grandmother to suck eggs?
