If it's still at an early enough stage i.e. you haven't picked it up yet, then speak to the dealer to see if it can be changed. When buying new for my wife a few years ago, the dealer let us choose from the list of available registrations they had...
if you're too late to get the dealer to change it, then with you buy your own private plate (from £250 + £25 for actual plates), or you learn to love it

Thanks Pauly this news has made feel better just had a look on dvla private plates shame that vw66 dub has gone maybe it's one of our members got it on there van
There are some T6 plates on DVLA I think?
The wife's private plate was a present in Feb ready for her new car in March... The dealership were able to register it with the private plate from new so that it was all insured and plated up on the private plate when we picked it up...
That was a couple of years ago, so to transfer it it from that car to her new T6 was a faff! All sorted now tho

Many dealers do pre activations from mid August so it may already be too late...
Before I read the Original post I thought "what an ignorant plonker, fancy not being happy with his numb......."
Then I saw it and thought.....
"Yeah I wouldn't want to see that every day either" hahah

I have just sent an email to my salesman asking if I can pre select before being auto allocated one
So at the very least, your thread has stopped it happening to another poor soul!

Think it's because reg allocation is digital from dvla to dealers. Years (and years!!) ago, dealers had a book of reg numbers to issue on new cars and they let you pick and wrote your name next to the one you chose. Seems odd that you get your V5 now before your car/van in some instances !!!!
I got to choose from three options on the BMW but not on the California.
