marko72 Posted September 14, 2009 Posted September 14, 2009 Does anyone have non standard plates on their car? Smaller plates or bike style plates? Have you had any bother with having them on? If anyone has any pics that would be great, especially bugeyes? Thankin U.
StrikE Posted September 14, 2009 Posted September 14, 2009 just a square plate on the front m8, standard size
paul555sti Posted September 14, 2009 Posted September 14, 2009 I fitted a 3/4 square plate to the front of my classic after i had the front mount fitted.
Joe G Posted September 14, 2009 Posted September 14, 2009 If its an import you can legally put a smaller plate on it but it will probably end up giving you unwanted attention from PC plod. I have a normal square plate on the front of mine to be on the safe side.
marko72 Posted September 14, 2009 Author Posted September 14, 2009 (edited) Its a uk car. Was thinking of something diff than standard but equally dont want any unwanted attention ahem Standard square could be good. Edited September 14, 2009 by marko72
W88CHY Posted September 14, 2009 Posted September 14, 2009 I had this on my previous STi. Never had a second look from any plod, but obviously I was lucky
StewartyBoy Posted September 14, 2009 Posted September 14, 2009 (edited) Ive had small plates on a few cars, couple of cars ive had them on... ...not one issue. Edited September 14, 2009 by StewartyBoy
gordi82 Posted September 14, 2009 Posted September 14, 2009 I have had lots of small plates some with fancy font some standerd. I got fed up of being pulled over by the police so went back to normal size and font. Just depends if police are in a mood or not. You would think they would have better things to do like stopping real criminals.
lumsden26 Posted September 14, 2009 Posted September 14, 2009 i had a motor bike size plate on mine and got pulled in a week got a 60 squid fine.
wulsey Posted September 14, 2009 Posted September 14, 2009 I had this 3/4 plate on my bugeye and never had any bother with the old bill.

Nice bug. i had a motor bike size plate on mine and got pulled in a week got a 60 squid fine. Nightmare. I had this 3/4 plate on my bugeye and never had any bother with the old bill. Hi Barry. How goes it? Yeah really like that. Think its the one for me. 3/4 size. Cool. I ordered some back issues of Total Impreza and found your bug in one of the issues. Nice Thanks for the comments and photos guys. Edited September 14, 2009 by marko72
Richie Cross Posted September 14, 2009 Posted September 14, 2009 It's really just luck when it comes to number plates. Along with the size, there are a lot with illegal spacing etc but some traffic boys say that as long as they can read it, or ANPR can, then it's not an issue. But it does leave you open for a ticket if your driving does something to make you stand out! And it is an easy ticket for those who like doing traffic!!!
badbaz Posted September 15, 2009 Posted September 15, 2009 I have this plate, i made it myself to fit the bumper mount exactly, characters are printed from vinyl by sticker company. The characters are 80% normal size, the spacing is similarly proportioned. No problems as yet with the plod but I do carry a full size plate in the boot just in case!
