Sticker?

About the only thing you can sensibly put on the front of a westfield, apart from nothing, or an illegal small plate. Got bored with a full size plate getting taken out by road kill and speed humps.

Kinda similar on the VXR220 (one of the plateless cars I mentioned earlier) the front plate attaches to a little 'plinth' at the lower edge of the front bumper.. Only the plinth is only about 1" tall and 5" wide, and they stick the plate on.. so it falls off the first time you find a speed hump ;D

gardening  14 up, 17 down
 When a group of three or more lads partake in the mass gang banging of a fair young maiden.

hey lads, claire looks drunk. Lets take her back to Tony's house for a gardening session.

You need to consult Roger's profanisaurus for the most complete education (NWS).

I met a chap at a classic car show a few years ago, before ANPR was what it is today..... :)

He had a 'B' reg Mini, as in 1983 not 1963. He had retro fitted Mk 1 Mini stuff so the car looked like a MK1 Mini and he had Black plates on it, when I asked about it he said cos the car looks old he gets away with it, that most Police know no different, his words not mine....... :D :D :D
