Getting Rid Of Old Plates
« on: 18 July 2009, 23:26 »
Just wondered how people here got rid of their old reg plates after upgrading them? I went to bin them today, but thought someone could have them out the bin and use them?!?!

What should I do with them?

I tend to keep them and give them to the next owner.

Same here, I have the Pressed ones, and they are only stickied on, keep my spares in the boot incase one falls off/ told to remove it/ someone nicks it. Never throw old parts away, as some buyers love getting all the old stuff, esp if the plates have where the car was registered on it.

If you do want to get rid of them though, snap them in half and cut lines all over them with a stanley knife - that's what I've done with old plates!
