That is stupid.
No it's not - it's a clever one. Good work.
Very clever, nice puzzle, cpfc!
In case anyone hasn't worked it out, the initial cost of £5000 included the registration fee. It cost £25 to have a new plate made (after it broke) and the next day, somone wanted to pay £6000 to buy the rights to it.
