they are ileagal , got pulled over for having them on the other day , all because of a bu number in the bottom right , usually you will get a £30 fine on the spot , i got let of , but cost £7 for a garage to say you got them of.

ive been pulled twice for mine so far never been given a fine yet

mot station said they were illegal because they didnt reflect

copper 1 said change them they are illegal
copper 2 said i need the bu number in bottom right and they will be fine

dubmiester says with the number on they are road legal so im gonna change mine and get some from there with the bu number on

so all you need is that number for them to be legal ?!

noob question : i know they're Frence plates but can you get them without the F mark ? just blank like

thats awesome, so if you can get them with the right code then they are fully road legal and you can get them with a GB symbol ... kwl

has anyone seen them like that ?

I must admit the French plates suit the Saxo to a tee, if it wasn't illegal I know for sure I'd have some, even the German plates look good too - compared to our "boring" ones that is :n:

yeah i got told the same... in fact i also got told dubmeister is theeee place for plates especially pressed, apparently all you gotta say is make sure they reflect and have GB on them im hooking myself up in the new year:y:

Personally prefer normal plates without all the border etc.

Illegal French plates arent worth the hassle.

Yeah looks cool for shows but not worth the hassle. Must admit that our plates look bare compared to De and F plates and the like
