Boxer23 Posted April 21, 2004 Posted April 21, 2004 New style number plates for motor vehicles will be introduced in the Isle of Man, from September 1st. Tynwald unanimously approved an order, from the Department of Transport, which will ensure the Island complies with the latest British standard. Among other things the new style plates will have bigger letters and numbers, and hyphens between the sets of characters. They will also have a larger "three-legs" emblem. Transport Minister John Shimmin told members the aim was to make it easier to enforce road traffic law. All vehicles registered from September the first must have the new style plates.
Tearz Posted April 21, 2004 Posted April 21, 2004 I was about to say that really sucks, but at least its only new cars.. I still think we should be able to have whatever kind of reg we want, providing of course that it's legible etc
CustomScoobyIOM Posted April 21, 2004 Posted April 21, 2004 Cool Still can have my black and silver numberplates on the SLK then
heazille Posted April 21, 2004 Posted April 21, 2004 Technically NO Jon, They are only allowed on vehicles registered before March 1989 (ish) So all the new cars with black an silver are pulled in the roadside checks at xmas, but opther than that the boys in blue are to busy. BUT, should you be stopped and done for anything else, that would probably be included!! Ta Ta Richard
Dave K Posted April 22, 2004 Posted April 22, 2004 Well my new plates aint gona pass! But what the hell, see how long they last's.
