Have we all got to get new number plates now, or can we still display the EU logo ::)

Do you still have a man walking in front of you with a red flag too? ;D

PS I bet the AA man still salutes you too.

As the plates are a standard, you could set yourself up selling  kits to convert from an EU plate to an FU one. Sounds like a business opportunity; a roll of yellow tape, some scalpels, employ a low-paid unskilled immigrant to cut the little strips and you could retire in luxury to the Algarve.

I always have an Ecosse sticker on the car. Our Gallic neighbours have been very helpful when they see it. :y
