Jon_vr6 1 Posted October 13, 2009 so people dont clone plates! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mimjed 0 Posted October 13, 2009 yeah i guess, but if all places dont ask for this then surely its a waste of time?? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scarlet_vr6 0 Posted October 13, 2009 I have just bought some pressed plates from Frampton's in Portsmouth. I'm very pleased with them, arrived very quickly and are UK road legal :D as for asking for documentation, I think all places are now supposed to ask unless they are selling show plates which aren't road legal Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mimjed 0 Posted October 13, 2009 fair cop. place down the road does them but they are pants, no docs with them. how much? did they want docs? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ben_wooduk 0 Posted October 13, 2009 I thought all pressed plates were illegal? How can you tell the legal ones? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scarlet_vr6 0 Posted October 13, 2009 yes they wanted docs but I scanned and emailled mine to them to save time (they only took 2 days to arrive and I ordered mine after 5pm). They cost me £40 - I did find cheaper online (craigsplates.com) but as the company name has to be on the bottom of the plates nowadays, I wanted the shortest name I could find and one that sounded smart :oops: what a snob I am :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mimjed 0 Posted October 13, 2009 the majority of the plaggy sort are ok. alloy ones tend to get you pulled! mostly its spacing font and reflectiveness that winds the filth up. but these are met by dubmeister and others that make pressed plates.

mimjed 0 Posted October 13, 2009 the company name has to be on the bottom of the plates nowadays thats supposed of been there for a long time, i got fined for running black/silver plates when i was 17. said i was in the wrong for not having the company name and postcode on them too Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scarlet_vr6 0 Posted October 13, 2009 I thought all pressed plates were illegal? How can you tell the legal ones? I spoke to them (and emailled them) clearly stating that I wanted UK road legal plates and they were very helpful :) They are reflective, have the right font and spacing and have the company name and postcode where the plates were made on them, so I hope they are legal!! I was assured they are, they even advertise them as being legal on their website. I even got a choice of whether I wanted the new font (since 51 plate, I guess) or the old style - I chose the old style to keep it consistent with the age of the car Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
