they wont be legal then!!  All legal plates need the makers name and postcode and bs number
if you want "non road use plates" try ebay

My mk2 had plates without any of that :undecided: I believe new plates are supposed to have a black border too? (mine didnt)

Mine don't have any of that....but they were sold as "off road plates" and I have had a comment from plod about them!! (no fine but he did mention they could be illegal?)

My plates at the moment only have the reg, i think the bs number too on the far right hand side at the bottom, but no identification of where the car/plates came from, never been pulled up about it and the police have pulled me before and didn't notice.

You'll be fine without borders, postcodes, addresses, etc. You've gotta be pretty unlucky to get pulled for something as minor as this!

Going back to where you can try for plates, try GT Grafix mate. I've used them twice now and can't fault their work.
