merckx Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 Full size, if the car has the capability of taking full size plates then it should have them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

merckx Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 lol it doesnt though I only changed mine after having it on the car for two years, I got pulled over for having illegal spaces (double ones) on the rear. He didn't see the front one but he asked me about it while I was sitting in his nice car. I thought I better change it too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harllequin Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 The other thing to think of, after April you have have an auto MOT test fail if your plate does not have the name and postcode where it was made and the kite mark on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DamanC Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 The old bill that pulled me a few months ago stated that import plates no longer are allowed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dazzi Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 Why is it that America seem to get on fine without front plates but the good old UK you need a plate on your neck, a cattle stamp on your arse and a criminal record even when you haven't got one. All this is for the speed cameras but legally they are not allowed to flash you from the front.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
