And it was Rhyso that made me get them.  :grin:

I did nothing of the sort  :shocked: :shocked:

I merely suggested that perhaps your car's visual appeal may be enhanced by the purchase of some pressed plates.....I didn't MAKE you buy them  :laugh: :kiss: :laugh:

You sowed the seed which led to the purchase which means you MADE me buy them.  :tongue:  :grin:

Those plates should come as standard, they look like they were invented just to be fitted on a GTI.

I'm not a fan at all. 
Mine are stuck on a shelf in the garage. Modern cars suit modern plates.

When I bought my first new car in 1980, pressed plates were the norm; there was an extra charge if I wanted to have perspex plates.
