I had NIL5 on an old v70 t5 (Nilsson is a Volvo tuner, not that well known) - quite obscure that one.
1 GTR on a Senator, that got bought by someone and put on a Porsche
1 GOW on the same Senator, pity it wasn't a C!

I'm not rich, my dads mate sell them and it used to be cheaper to put them on cars instead of on retention!

There's someone driving round with GE 07 REY, that is cool!

Needs to be read in a Scots accent though!   ;D

I have a rather off-topic, but I hope amusing story prompted by this...

Years ago I worked for a small electronics company that had a contract to supply control electronics to a very large (US) company that made road resurfacing machines.  Our device helped them get the thickness of the asphalt just right, to within a very small tolerance. 

The father of the boss of our company one day - out of the blue - said "Them Yanks should have a slogan for their machines...Have your asphalt the way you like your asphalt"

Say it out loud. :)
