Hello,

It was a sunny night up here in the North East of Scotland so I took the Caterham out for a spin. I was pulled over by a couple of traffic cops with a radar gun. Thankfully I wasn't speeding but one wasn't happy with my front number plate, which looks something like this:

He seemed unhappy because he thought it was a stick on thing but I'm not sure it is. However, the letters and numbers may be a touch smaller than indicated on the DVLA website. I take it that I need to go get a standard number plate, yes?

I'm quite surprised as the car went through a MOT about 4 weeks back and for various reasons has been in 3 garages over the winter, none of whom mentioned there may be a problem with the licence plates....

Cheers

Andy

No ticket, just advised that I'd potentially get a £100 fine every time I take the car out. So I guess in hindsight, fairly decent of him...

Where did you guys get your correct size etch on plates? I did buy a standard one today but to be honest I'd prefer a stick on one. Many thanks.
