Number plates

(1/5) > >>

SHERMAN TANK:
I was thinking of getting a self adesive number plate and putting it on the top front edge of my bonnet............... Is that legal?................Would the police be funny about it?............And where can you get em, i havent seen any in a while. [-o<

muddyweb:
Since the changes in the regulations, you will be hard pushed to find somewhere selling them.   A number plate is supposed to require proof of vehicle ownership and is supposed to have the name of the person selling it on the bottom.

Even if you do find one, you need to be careful about positioning it.  The plate  should be vertical.

j1onnh:
I think you can still get these from camping / caravan centres, but as Muddyweb said since the new regs the Five - 0 get funny about stuff like that, so to be honest i'd stick with the plate you've got on the bumper if I were you. I personally think that the stick on ones look crap anyway, but thats just my opinion, each to their own as they say!!!

try     www.mitchellscamping.co.uk

I know they used to do them.

 :lol:

Wanderer:
They also should be flat. Adhesive ones on a bonnet or curved surface would be contrary to construction and use.

Bush Tucker Man:
They've got to be in a vertical plane, not too sure about the curvature as I'm certain there's a few new cars about that have convexly mounted plates.

Thought 'Stick-Ons' were exempt from the regulations??

But evidently not..........
