personally don't see the point in running anything non-legal for every day use... i'd rather be legal and not have to even think whether a b@stard rozzer is going to pull me or not

Totally agree.

I run black and silver plates, the law here in Guernsey says you can have a silver/black front one but not a rear one but EVERYONE on the island has two blacks and the police don't do a thing.

I've got black/silver number plates on my camper and I don't care if the cops stop me in that, mainly because they are on there legally ! :grin:

As you know Mick I ran them on my Mk 2 Polo Saloon. Didnt have any grief in the three weeks I owned it with them on.
