Just a small point, contrary to something Frank said:
Garages are issues a block of registrations, as appropriate for their
area.
What often happens, and happened when we bought my wifes New Beetle a
couple of months ago, is that we looked through the list of available
registrations and selected the number we liked the best.
The lists sent for general use excluded the "valuable" numbers: 1-25,
88, 888, 666, 999, 100, etc... Also combinations that seem to make
words/names: for example Y 45 TAN can be re-spaced as Y 4 5TAN (Y for
Stan)
