I just got pulled by an unmarked bmw x5 for my number plates , they offered me a £30 fine or not pay the fine and have to get the plates sorted by 14 days.
So if i get my plates sorted and signed by an mot test centre so i can send off the form can i then put my old ones back on.
If i get pulled for them again they wont be able to find out that they have pulled me before will they??

Look no different to be honest.

IMO standard plates look better than those, but either way just learn from this time mate, they might not be so lenient the next time and it's not exactly worth the hassle just for number plates.

you might get away with it if its another copper but if its the same one then they arent gonna let you off again are they!
and IMO a perfectly plain legal plate looks better than different fonted ones!

Yes they like slightly better (in some peoples views) but in all honesty is it worth the hassle / fine / points?

Plates look best with the standard font anyway. I generally think people with stupid fonts and odd sizes with letters bent around the fuckin place to look like it's something else are total badgers tbh.

Why bother with stupid plates? It doesn't look any better with stupid fonts and other shit all over them. Especially if you have a fucking German flag on them.

I had plates on my old card and we got pulled, i took the option to get it sorted in 14 days, dint want a fine! But they are too much hassel as they are really clamping down now, and knowing my luck it would be the same copper that pulled us again.
