Car-Park-View. We have just rented the car-park that came with our apartment to another family here. This usefully covers our taxi bill.
As part of this process, I became aware that underneath the Podium there are 6 massive levels of car-parking with spaces for hundreds of cars. Access is by permit only and controlled 24 hours by the guards at the 'Scroff office' and electronic gates.
As you'd expect, there are many expensive cars, and many with personalized number-plates. So I decided to explore a little...
Firstly the Parkview people-movers. 'Parkview' obviously...
'Married' makes sence since they host weddings.
And 'Beijing' with mainland number-plates. Sending a signal to their esteemed guests?
'Chyau Fwu' is the family company of the Wong/Hwany family and the developer of Parkview. (link)
'WinLoyal' is a Hong Kong Trading company in textiles and leather.
As you'd expect, many of the private cars had names....

Plenty of lucky number '8' s.
BL1558 is 'Bliss 8'
Mr 1588? Hmmm. 1588 is the year of the spanish armada. Mr. Gasket 1588 Balancer Timing Tape is a product (designed for timing high-performance engines...). And there is a china-based Mr 1588 selling in E-Bay....
I liked this one: Semper Fidelis is Latin for "Always Faithful" or "Always Loyal". Well known in the United States as the motto of the United States Marine Corps, and often shortened to "Semper Fi" in Marine contexts (Wiki)
'Patito' is duckling in Spanish. As in 'Patito Feo' - ugly duckling.
A 'yummy mummy' runabout
The 'A Team'
Perhaps their favorite film is the 1995 thriller 'Seven'
Master of Ceremonies?
Old-style class.
And our unused carpark...
