A W33 LAUGH
Glasgow garage boss flogging cheeky ‘wee f*nny’ number plate – and it could be yours for £25,000
by Ewan MowatA GLASGOW garage boss is selling his prized W33 FNY number plate - and it could be yours for a cool £25,000.
Matt Kandola has spent the last five years with the cheeky plate on his R35 Nissan GT-R after picking it up at an auction.
The 40-year-old, who owns Garage-R in Hillington, says he's had a good laugh with it and is now looking to flog it for a bit of extra cash.
Matt said: "I've had it for quite a while now. It's been a good laugh, it's funny and you always get a lot of looks from people in the street.
"Especially when Irn-Bru had the 'Fanny' advert.
"I always get guys laughing when they see it and asking if its real. I've had a few people ask to take pictures too."
Matt, who says lockdown has been "quiet" for his business, revealed he was previously offered £18,000 for the rude plate but turned it down.
And now he is hoping to rake in £25,000 from the sale - and he will replace it with a slightly less risque plate for his supercar.
He said: "I've got quite a few different plates, including another one that's a wee bit politically incorrect.
"I think I'll just have one with my name on it now."
Last year, a driver refused a new van after he deemed its number plate was too raunchy for the road.
The customer was shocked to find his new Nissan NV400 was sporting the shocking number plate - which started with BJ69 - when he picked it up Vanarama showroom in Birmingham.
But the DVLA said the rude plate was fine to be on the road.
