marbleapple Posted December 30, 2008 Share Posted December 30, 2008 Evening All, I have three quick questions that I know you guys will know the answers too. 1. How do you remove and replace the rectangular heating vents? Is it a matter of just giving them a good pull or do you have to start taking things apart like you have to do with the circular vents (where you have to remove the dash)? 2. My Corsa is a 16V... what is the supra? (Yes I know most of you will be laughing or worrying at that question). 3. I have been looking for a cheap private reg with my initials (RJN), can I choose any? My car is presently an L reg. I note there seems to be some issue with age of cars (and a lot of people here like the '666' for some reason) Before the inevitable 'use the search option' reply, I have done so already but I like things to be clear and nothing came back for certain when I searched.

Dave17 Posted December 30, 2008 Share Posted December 30, 2008 2. Supra is 24V - 6 cylinder, 4 valves per cylinder, 4x6 = 24V Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marbleapple Posted December 30, 2008 Author Share Posted December 30, 2008 2. Supra is 24V - 6 cylinder, 4 valves per cylinder, 4.6 = 24V Thank you My idea was V24 RJN as my private reg. Would you happen to know if it is ok to use that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted December 30, 2008 Share Posted December 30, 2008 1, I can't remember. You can just pull the circular ones out through. 2, 24v 3, You can use any plate that is not age related or any age related plate that is L reg or before. My idea was V24 RJN as my private reg. Would you happen to know if it is ok to use that? Not allowed, as it would make you car look newer than it really is. V24 means nothing anyway.

When you say age related does that mean regs like T90 or N888? - which reg plates are not age related? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ewen Posted December 30, 2008 Share Posted December 30, 2008 You could have RJN 24V if you can find it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DARETT Posted December 30, 2008 Share Posted December 30, 2008 That would be a cool plate, probably very pricey though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamesy W Posted December 30, 2008 Share Posted December 30, 2008 How about F1 RJN? http://www.nationalnumbers.co.uk/options/F1_RJN.htm Still a heck of a lot of cash though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marbleapple Posted December 30, 2008 Author Share Posted December 30, 2008 How about F1 RJN? http://www.nationalnumbers.co.uk/options/F1_RJN.htm Still a heck of a lot of cash though. Thanks for the suggestion. The dvla do a lot of RJNs for £249 so I may just go for one of those. Idea is simply to avoid the 'that's no way an L reg' conversations that I seem To be having with every man and his dog Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SupraD06 Posted December 30, 2008 Share Posted December 30, 2008 Off Topic but if anyone owns a T88 supra then this is for you http://www.nationalnumbers.co.uk/options/T88_SUP.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marbleapple Posted December 31, 2008 Author Share Posted December 31, 2008 (edited) Bloody hell Ric you are not joking are you?? Joking about what mate? Do You mean about not having a clue about cars? - I know very little (almost nothing) about cars and that's what is so great about my obsession with the supra. My comfort zone and knowledge is based on business and the law (all academic) and the Supra allows me to step into practical, hands on environment which is an area I really am a clueless noob in! I have the greatest respect for people like you, Chris Wilson, JamieP, Gaz, Rob, Martin, Jamesy etc (to name but a few)who all seem to know so much about cars and how things tick. I'm not embarrassd to admit when I'm out of my depth As for the private plate, Supras in my area for some reason are rarer than Aston Martins and Ferraris... People are genuinely confused by the L reg plate (especially after Envys respray) Did you have a good Christmas Dave?
