Funny, numberplates usually do not include vowels, such as A E I O and U...

Any reason you have "A" included in yours?

Personalized or just plain avoiding speeding tickets?

Yeah I noticed one or two other gauteng cabs like that when I was up there? Have they run out of combinations without vowels, it must be :

Vowel : A E I O U (sometimes Y but they use it)

There's 26 letters in alphabet minus 5 = 21 letters.

Therefore 26 x 25 (can't use previous) x 24 (can't use previous and former) for the letters and 9^3 (numbers can be duplicated) for the numbers.

I think this is right, I did Stats so I do have justification for these answers. Albeit probably wrong. :P

That means 15600 * 729 = 11372400 combinations which is 11 million odd. Now there's almost 50 million in SA and Gauteng probably has about a 1/4 of the population? Which means 50/4 = 12.5 million, so therefore they need more to add vowels????

Dealer plates usually run on Exx000

But then again - I dont know about bikes... I just know all car dealerships use Exx as far as I have ever seen in my life...
