Hey there, I just ordered a new car but the biggest problem turns out to be finding an available license plate number. Literally everything I could think of seems to be taken already. The only one I did find that was free was the VF-25 from Macross Frontier.

The pattern I need is one or two letters followed by one or two digits: X(X) - #(#). It also has an E after that since it's an plugin hybrid but I don't even try to find something that incorporates the E (would be cool though).

So, I need your help. Maybe you know any anime (or LN, Manga, Otaku culture, etc. ) references that would fit into that pattern? Single letter or digit combinations are very rare but I'll try them anyway for availability.

Thanks in advance!

PS: I can't keep my old license plate number (Model number of the Millennium Falcon) because the E at the end of the new plate takes away from the maximal length allowed.

PPS.: No leading zeros in the digits. I.e. 01, 02, etc. aren't allowed.

PPPS.: It seems like one letter and 3 digits works as well.

That also gave me the idea to check C-64 as that was my fist own computer, but that was probably to common well. Especially with he single letter.

I-386 and I-486 would be free. But I don't have any particular fond memories for those other than having owned them.
