Baidan Posted September 12, 2015 Share Posted September 12, 2015 Decided to waste more money and get new plates, don't like the GB and the Syntner advert,,, so went to Halfords (I know I know) with the 1mm stickers £40 odd quid lighter, walked out noticed bloody Halfords and their post code on the plates!!. After a drive round car park and some deliberation decide I wasn't happy, so went back in, they eventually gave me plates with no advert or post code, the mgr was mithering about it being illegal to do so, even though you can them on eBay with no logo etc. so moral of this tale is, if you fancy clean plates you can get them, don't let them tell you otherwise.. No not fitted yet, and yes removing front plate bracket/holder.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bounty Bar Kid Posted September 12, 2015 Share Posted September 12, 2015 OMG large company refusing to do illegal stuff. shock horror! Pointless thread imo. You can buy lots of stuff on eBay. Doesn't make it legal, neither does the fact that other people do it too. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilogikal1 Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 neither does the fact that other people do it too. No, no, no, you're mistaken, this is exactly how the law works - everything is illegal until more than 3 people do it, then it instantly becomes perfectly acceptable... I'm sure that defence excuse will hold up against a slightly picky police officer too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
