But it is a pretty cool number plate combination either way

The R36 does have a VR6 in it

What is a VR36 VW?

It can work on a few levels.

The Passat R36 is a VR6, so it could be VR*6VW.
It could also be *R36VW.
Or it could just work on both levels. VR36VW.

Fail troll has failed.

Actually tried to reserve this plate but it was already taken. RTA said it was held in storage for some guy who lived in Canberra, was doing some work in Melbourne, was going overseas but now looks like moving back to Canberra and reserved it just in case he one day moves to NSW

Who is Al and why would I know him? Or was it just an attempt at being a smart arse but really you just can't spell?

Who mentioned you?

[Rocket36]

You did... But end of discussion. I'm not going to take this even more OT than you have.

Since this thread came up, I'll take the opportunity to ask a question I've been meaning to ask various owners with similarly-labeled plates for a while.... What is the appeal, for example, of adding further "R36" labeling on the number plate when the car is easily identified as an R36 and it has badges front and back stating the same?

Please note - not a knock to the OP or anyone else with such plates... just wondering =) Personally I find the Knowal plate quite amusing

I don't get the whole personalised numberplate thing either.
I also find the knowal plate joke quite funny, well done Highlander!

I still fail to understand why knowing someone named Al is amusing....
