The only car I own and also the only car I have ever owned. Yes, the model number on the badge is fake (I did it as a joke) and some may find some of the body modifications a little tacky, but I like it and it's done me very well. It's fine for a not so rich 23 year old like myself! :grin:

Doesn't the license plate indicate the country?

:confused: you mean regions inside countries?
Most of the EU plate have the blue "euroband" on the left to indicate the country, and often the letter/number style can also help. Some other had different plate style, like Belgium or UK.

Yes, with the old Spanish plates you could know inside of Spain where the car was from, didnt you know that?

@CCF: No, this is not correct. In the past a plenty of European countries, except the Netherlands and Luxemburg -Belgium, too??- (and Sweden since 1973) had plates, where you could see, where the car was coming from.

In Germany it's still usual. There are some exceptions for government-cars, but the first letters (one, two or three) are showing the town or county, where the car is coming from.

Denmark's system is more complicated. There is shown the area, also the type of car in the number-code.

In Britain -except personalized plates- you could see the area, too (I think, the last two letters of the group with three letters), in the past also the year of first registration was to see.

Austrian and Swiss plates are showing the towns (Austria except the new pesonalized plates) or countries (Switzerland).

In Turkey the group of two numbers is showing the town, beginning alphabetic with 01 for Adana (Istanbul has 34).

What's up with France? I think, they still keep the old, place-related system. The last two numbers are showing, in which prefecture the car is registrated (for example 75 for Paris, 13 for Marseille, 67, 68 and 69 for the Alsace etc.).

you said "Not anymore in Europe": but there are lots of European countries where it is still true.

In France the last two digits indicate the department, indeed, but this will change soon.

In Belgium as the plates are smaller than Euro-plates (nearly same width as US plates), they are fixed on a support which also often carry the address of the garage were the car is serviced. So using that info you know from where the car is :lol:

I thought so. As a Scotland-fan I have noticed the typical landscape. :wink:

On this side of the Atlantic a car like that would indicate that you were doing very well indeed. My car on the other hand...

Well thank you. I enjoy my car too but it is by no means a "status symbol".

My college-student neighbor who lives down the street from me has a Saturn exactly like that one. Same color, generation, bodystyle, trim level, everything. It's a SC2 from about 2001 if I'm not mistaken? Nice how it has plastic body panels, I've always liked that :smile:

Here are some new photos of my truck for those (if any) interested. The first two are after a fresh wash-and-wax from about a week ago, on the Cook Inlet beach on the Kenai Peninsula. The bottom three are from four days ago when it wasn't so clean.
