  1. Nice car, where about is it? As for financial suicide...... every car is m8 unless you buy a collectors car & sit on it 20+ years

    Buying nearly new isn't as harsh or painful when buying straight from new

    I reckon with what i can see £25600 ish :thumbup: but thats just a vague guess lol i will be miles out no doubt

    Are you buying or selling?

  2. A word with the vendor maybe Del?

    I could but what are they going to do? replace the bumper/fix it for 2 screws that are unseen by a standard plate because that's all they will say.

    Still fizzin :thumbup: Got my square plate on just now & looks brilliant [and 100% pull proof]

    I will try a custom plate & just keep a changer in the boot

  3. Got my plates made up today, fitted the back plate first with no problem.......more than i can say for the front :thumbup:

    I know why the plate screws are so far out from normal, some nice person has fitted the plate by means of 'lining it up straight' and then just blasting 2 self tappers through the plate into the bumper behind and not even bothering to take the 40 secs required to line up the existing holes & drill correctly.

    Call me a perfectionist & over reacting but ffs man now i have 2 bloody great holes in my bumper where there shouldn't be

    The upshot being stick with the boring standard plate or modify one, even worse the 'extra' holes drilled are not straight.

    Bahhhh!

  6. Hi,

    Looking to get plates for my car, back number plate will be standard 20'' x 4'' but the front plate i was wanting to make it smaller up front.

    I had the square plate on the RB & liked it more than the usual standard plate but unfortunately the holes that have been drilled on the hatch are physically the same dimensions of the square plate [externally]

    I know at least 2 members on here that have smaller plates bobby & baz.

    Do you ever get pulled for the plates?

    If i was to get pulled by plod & had a standard plate in the boot would i get a fixed fine.

    Any help or advise would be good folks :lol:

    Many thanks

    Del
