i hide mine so im not a victim of vehicle identity theft. i manage to accumulate enough speeding tickets without someone else helping me along by nicking my reg no

i was also a victim of identity theft (before it became fashionable hehe) and its a real pain in the butt so its just not worth risking it

i had some showplates made for photos but sadly the front bumper on most cars is bowed so wont stick on with adhesive alone, needs drilling, which i am yet to do.

Laminated card would bend though, even blue tack would stick it, just for show.. :y

I have the facility to print these out on a large format Epson if need be. Only Photo Paper though, Not Card. And I don't have a laminator either.

AS in ebay car ads some ownwers don't want to risk "cloning" ie some one could steal a car like yours apply for a log book, do a bank job etc.
   Does'nt bother me personally as i can prove where me or the car were @ any given time but some err on the side of caution.

How would you know this "Biglad?" :D
Hello Dumpling. Well being as you asked you & me are off to do a "Thelma & Louise" in Pete's MX5!!!! :-* :'(

Might just wanna clone a car to avoid paying tax/MOT/Insurance...

Clone a plate of a car on ebay thats advertised as haveing 12 months MOT 6 months tax...when it sells most likely the first thing the new owner will do is insure it for a year...so drive your similar looking Omega about and if the police see it then its covered according to their computer and any fines go to the owner...probably get away with it on each car for a while...

Those plates are definitely a good idea - nice one!

We'll have to look into the cost of getting them printed and laminated - next time I'm in town i'll pop into the printers and ask.

I'd say no need to get them printed, I can do that for free! its just the laminating part that needs looking into

If someone has an A4 Laminator (cheap as chips anyway) all we need to find is some large pouches big enough to fit round the number plate

Standard Oblong plate - 524mm x 112mm

Found this http://www.laminatingpouches.co.uk/pouches.html

Probably need to get some A2's and cut them down for each one!

I'll happily do this - I can pick up a cheapo laminator and a pack of these pouches and then give it a go. It'll have to wait until payday next week though.

 :y

Richard - If I PM you my address, will you print a couple of those plates off and post them to me? I'll get the laminator and the pouches, give it a go, then stick the results up here.
