MRSCIFI

Film: All of them? There's something almost endearingly🃏 tragic about the fact that this guy loves the entire genre so m💟uch, he can't even narrow it down a little bit.

Pros: Nice and una💦mbiguous; a handy catch-all. Nerdism levels (catasജtrophic) clearly stated.

Cons: Could easily be mistaken fღor 'MRS CIFI', which sounds a bit like some half-arsed, dubiously MILF-y porn name.

What The Owner Probably Wishes He Was Driving: An actual woman around, ꦫrather than just loads of old takeaway cartons and a heavy, heavy heart.

MMFALCN

Film: Star Wars . Take your pick of Episodes IV-VI , but we're betting the very mention of its Sith cameo would earn you a light saber in the eye 🌺f🌜rom this dude.

Pros: One of the cooler reference𒅌s available from his chosen canon. Gives an impression of rouguish charm and eyeball-blistering speed.

Cons: Purple and yellow makes it look like a candy bꦗar wrapper, especially the 'MM' bit. Worse, it could be misread a𓄧s a declaration of creepy feelings towards certain birds of prey.

What The Owner Probably Wishes He Was Driving: Well, duh...

PICARD

Film: Star Trek ( Generations , First Contact , Insurrection and Nemesis , if we're being anal. Which he al💎most🥂 certainly is.)

Pros: Suggests an📖 air of suave sophisticat🐻ion. Avoids saying "I'm a hot-headed, freakishly clammy firebrand"; an inevitable setback with 'TKIRK'.

Cons: Makes him sound bald. And we've got a c🗹risp £20 sa♔ys he is.

What The Owner Probably Wishes He Was Driving: USS Enterprise, but not exactly driving - more just sit♚ting up on the roof rack, authoritatively but democratically watching a bunch of other peo🐻ple drive it.

AKIRA

Film: Kind of a Ronseal one, this.

Pros: As far as sci-fi vanity plate references go, even we've got to admit this is a relatively cool one. Note: relatively .

Cons: Should really be embossed above the fat back tyre of a murderous-looking Tron -style futurebike, as opposed to what🎉ever diesel-belching shed this is doubtless glue-gunned on to.

What The Owner Probably Wishes He Was Driving: See 'co😼ns'. Either that, or an﷽ all-girl Japanese schoolbus on a day trip to Hello Kitty Land. (Which , upsettingly enough.)

THX1138

Film: Once again, the clue's in the title.

Pros: You could argue there's a faint hipster caché to thi﷽s "I preferred his earlier stuff" ne🍸rdgasm of a number plate. Just not successfully.

Cons: Star Wars fanboys, Star Trek fanboys, humans...the list of folk keen to point out this🎀 guy's epic loserdom must essentially be endless. Besides, it should read 'THX 1138'. Not that we know or anything.

What The Owner Probably Wishes He Was Driving: All (both) his 🤡mates mad in the pub, endlessly quoting esoteric geek flicks until they're all crying together.

IHEARTTREK

Film: Star Trek , obv꧅iously. And again, take your pick - just don't be surprised if the owner of this vehicle is something of a purist.

Pros: Meh. There's very little to redeem this limping effort, frankly. In fact the more we look at it, the more we want this guy's car🐲 ꦜto plummet off a jetty in the night.

Cons: Too vague, too casual and far, far too cutesy. Hearts go on My Little Pony hindquarters, not th🔜ing🌺s powered by internal combustion engines.

What The Owner Probably Wishes He Was Driving: A My Little Pony.

DTH STR

Film: Star Wars . A New Hope if his car's in good nick, Return Of The Jedi if it's one of those cut-and-shut, two-tone effওorts.

Pros: C🐟huffing sinister. If there's a better way to make an already scary name look significantly scarier than by removing all the vowels, then we don't want to know about it.

Cons: Sort of demand🍨s a more intimidating setℱ of wheels than a Volkswagen, doesn't it? Like, say, a .

What The Owner Probably Wishes He Was Driving: The Death Star is a 𝔉bit ambitious - let's star off with "his own car, not his mum's."

WOOKIES

Film: Star Wars . Again.

Pros: Endearingly sill🦩y. Imagine it with an exclamation🍰 mark, and it kinda sounds like a delirious shriek of pure nerdcore joie de vivre.

Cons: Imagine it with an exclamation mark, and it also sound✨s like something a posh child might substitute for a proper swear, knowing that “shitbaskets” would be their one-way ticket to aꦦ month without pony rides.

What The Owner Probably Wishes He Was Driving: A speeder, whipping dextro🍸usly through the f𒁃orests of Endor rather than snarled up in post-Wal-Mart gridlock.

UFO GUY

Film: This frequent flyer doesn’t own a telly or DV﷽D player - that’s what the CIA use to monitor his brainwaves, maaan!

Pros: There’s always a slim chance it could be🗹 someone cool and famous who&r𒉰squo;s only associated with UFOs in a hip, tongue-in-cheek sort of way. Like, um...we’ll get back to you.

Cons: It’s a ☂convertible, so we instantly know it’s just another sky-watching, tinfoil hat-wearing space cadet.

What The Owner Probably Wishes He Was Driving: Pfft, he’s not interested in driving. Where he’s going🐭, they don&r🀅squo;t need roads...

DALEK

Film: Dr. Who and the Daleks ; Daleks - Invasion Earth 2150 AD

Pros: Suitably robotic, bristling with malice, and Dr Who references enjoy a surprising level of mainstream acceptance these days.

Cons: Daleks are rubbish, really, aren't they? Also, we have concerns about what this guy's car horn sounds like. Serious concerns.

What The Owner Probably Wishes He Was Driving: Take a guess - it's about five feet high, and it really struggles with stairs.
