when driving in europe they will only accept the gb, and not constituent countries, also, they dont recognise/accept the english flag.  Only the union jack!

Best not to have any flags IMHO.

.. and they'll put that "Euro" flag on my car over my dead body.  >:(

I agree completely! We're not part of Europe anyway, there's a strip of water between us!

I consider my plates to be illegal, no postcode, no makers name, and a Vauxhall badge.http://www.omegaowners.com/forum/YaBB.pl?num=1225393439  

I keep the old plates in the car just incase the plod stop me and for MOT time if they say are not passable.

mates car has just failed the m.o.t for not having the postcode stamped on the plate  :o :o


Yes that is an offence under current regulations:

 :y :y


Mine are technically illegal (but only if they were made after a certain date) :y

What is your postcode TB? If I put that on as the server location I suppose that would legalise them wouldn't it? ;D
