andrew_moffat Posted December 26, 2007 Posted December 26, 2007 Dont know how this affects other people but the police in Plymouth have cracked down on "illegal" number plates, Zero tolerance. I got pulled but got a £30 fine. They say they are cracking down but the ANPR car that pulled me could never have INITIALLY seen my plates and the car behind me (a fiesta) had worse plates than me lol. The joys of having a Scooby...wouldnt change it tho, if any one did see my Scooby on the A38 with the police i assure you this time it wasnt speeding!!!

Bailey73 Posted December 31, 2007 Posted December 31, 2007 I was very tempted to pull a police car over the other day in Swindon as he had a brakelight out - they need to get their own cars in order before picking on us.
andrew_moffat Posted January 3, 2008 Author Posted January 3, 2008 I know in the week i was back i got pulled 3 times...All 3 times they didnt see my plates until they started following me and even breathalyzed me once lol...Well my legal plates are back on so we'll see what they try to do me for now, to top it off my mum and uncle are both coppers in Plymouth and both agreed that my plates were fine (ok technically illegal lol)
jd Posted January 3, 2008 Posted January 3, 2008 lets see what they do when i next go down to see Martyn.

Trouble is a bulb can blow at any time, so as long as you check before you drive and carry a spare you should not get done. I looked at trying to replace some of the bulbs in my Legacy and the handbook says main dealer due to the complexity. I looked and agree!! Cr*p design.
