Yeah, but lets be honest also, some of the plats a totally rediculous and could never be red by a human qithout looking carefully, and of course a plate can be evidence in an accident etc...

I wonder what all the drivers with the fancy writing would do, if their car got robbed, they would have little chance of finding haha!!

Would serve them right though. I don't get why some people insist on using blatently illegal plates. Some illegal plate's you see, take the pi$$. The cops should come down harder on it, I know a mate who had them on for like 2 years, only pulled once in all that time...

IMO A privte plate is the most individual way you can modify your car....

...by "private plate" I mean something with your initials etc, not something with a modified font.

I would'nt say its daft, cos they are a personal choice. I would'nt personally spend the money on one, but that's my choice lol.

Id class a mod as something that alters the apperance of the car, which a private plate will.

Personally Id say £30 is paying through the nose for a set of lex-arse lights, but each to their own....

Either way, this is going off topic now grin
