I agree how bad a feeling this would have left your friend with. Only if he had been a bit more careful.

I believe in numbers to a certain extent too. In order to avoid any disappointments of this sort I make it a point to go to the RTO in person and get the special number, give the form pertaining to the alloted number to the car/bike dealer when the vehicle is taken for registration. During times when I am tied up with work and dont find time to make it in person to the RTO, I at least ensure the number series as in whether it is TN-09-AD....or TN-09-AE with the RTO and then leave the rest to the dealer. I have done this for all my cars and bikes so far. This has ensured that I dont end up with disappointments.

Bottom line is: If you are specific about a particular number, stretch that extra bit apart from paying the fees, to ensure that you get the number you want. After all, it doesnt come to you free of cost !
