Yep, and there's been a few threads on here of late from people that have been done for having illegal plates. Don't say you've not been warned.

I saw a traffic car the other day pulling a vw transporter for wearing those style of plates.

Thanks for the feedback folks - Car is a 160PD TDI running 199.4bhp & 450nm torque from a Custom Code Map. With regards to the Spanish Plates I have the original plates behind the pressed ones. I intended for them to be show plates but they looked so good on I kept them. I have been passed before by traffic police and met police and they have never mentioned the plates. I have even been told by a passing officer 'nice plates'? biggrin Although I still draw some looks from passing police cars, but I dont drive like a hooligan and like to keep within speed limits, which kind of goes in my favour when im passed. I think they finish the look of the car off and give a hint of subtile modification as im not big on bodywork mods prefer OEM and sleeper myself.

can't figure out this veedub car bra obsession. Looks crap IMO - other than that nice car.

@duncansharp

Its running a full Sachs clutch kitwink

@shalmaneser

Well soft paint and stonechips dont work on VAGs so the bonnet bra is popped on for motorway driving. Again another exterior mod that doesnt involve bodywork and imo looks great smile

car bras are growing on me tbh, I would like that car very much, did it come with a little TDi Logo on the wing? Have you removed this?

Randomman - The Derv and Petrol Cupras are the same externally. There is no TDI Badge on this car from new. Hope this helpswink

Didn't know that, must just be the FR that has the TDi badge.
