Had some new plates made up as I don't like all the dealers stuff along the bottom. What do you think?.

good idea!

I had new plates on my golf... bottom line reads "Volkswagen Golf MKIV 1.9 TDI"

Why do you have GB and an England flag.

Should be the Union Flag.

Should be the Union Flag.

Because I am English not Scotish, Welsh or Irish and the GB saves me having to put a sticker on when I travel abroad .

Plates look nice but shouldn't you have some letters/ numbers in the middle

I've been waiting for that one

Wish i had of thought about putting Briskoda, Just got a personal number plate and just went plain boring with simple GB euro thing and black border. Shame looks really good.

i try not to dissapoint

did you get them online? i usually buy them from Ebay stores - no having to pruduce docs and any font/ spacing you want (sellers sell them as show plates)

Got them from GT Graffix and no I did'nt have to produce any documents as they are classed as show plates although I can't see that I would be pulled over because of them!.

I got my plates from GTGrafix as well - really helpfull bunch.

Put them on this morning....

What are the rules regarding this. Is it ok to have UK or ENG instead of GB?

I was thinking of getting something like this:

I think you must have 'GB' if travelling abroad although I may be proved wrong!. Plate manufacturers do make plates with 'UK' and 'ENG' but I dont think they are an approved marking for travelling on the continent but then again I could be proved otherwise!.

If you have GB on your plate you don't need a GB sticker on the rear.....So i'm told

I would think that the only "allowed" version should be GB with the european stars -- but as these plates are meant to be for show use only, I guess anything goes - however you have to be carefull , as you can have your number plate seized - then you have to buy another and pay 2 lots of transfer fees !!

Thats why I've tried to keep mine as low key as possible

THE EURO PLATE

Since 1st September 2001 there has been an optional provision for the display of a Euro-plate for vehicles registered in the UK. The Euro-plate is a number plate that incorporates the symbol of the European Union (a circle of 12 stars on a blue background) with the national identification letters of the member states below. This symbol is located on the far left-hand side of the number plate.

Vehicles displaying this symbol no longer have to use the traditional oval shaped national identifier (GB) sticker when travelling within the European Union. All vehicles registered in England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales have, by international convention, the distinguishing sign GB.

The Government announced on 28 December 2001 the intention to permit the display of national flags and national identifiers on vehicle number plates. The Road Vehicles (Display of Registration Marks) Regulations 2001 are in the process of being amended. They will provide for the voluntary display of the Union flag, Scottish Saltire, Cross of St George and Red Dragon. Football team crests etc are not allowed.
