Genuinely interested, what do people do to modify aircraft registration numbers?
Change the colour, change the location of the letters on the aircraft, change the registration so they can spell something, change the lean on the lettering ect.

Oh, I fully agree its there choice and as you know I have never disagreed with that point. Which is why I am surprised that you are trying to imply that I have.

I am more interested din why you keep going on about other peoples choices yourself. It seems that you are wholly incapable of understanding a viewpoint other than your own?

That's the real issue here.
So the issue is mine, despite the fact that I really don't give a fig what someone else does to their car, yet you, and others, can quite happily moan and groan about it, even to the point of a daft thread and supporting pictures.

Yep. That's one giant leap there biggrin
Yes. Because your insistence that you are outing other people’s behavioir is an obvious front and as poor attempt at deflection from the fact that you dislike people who criticise bodged plates.


You aren’t at all subtle.

That fiction has been debunked a number of times already.

Its only the bodged up and misplaced plates that look horrible. Nobody seems to have an issue with legal plates.


It does get rolled out now and again as justification for all manner of visual horrors, smile
It’s not fiction to state that it’s nobody else’s business smile Those weirdos take pictures of number plates and (mass) debate each other furiously, the tension is electric in their hotbed of discussion rofl
Personally, I’m looking forward to the day when some meat head takes offence to a random punter taking pictures of his pride and joy. biggrin
Normal is normal. Weird is actually a description of the abnormal/not normal behaviour of an individual..

Its not normal practice to bodge a plate, as seen by the low numbers on the road today.
Its even less normal to run around like a child calling everyone who disagrees with your weird/abnormal names because you cant win an argument. laugh

Personally, I'm looking forward to the pictures of you acting like an infant because someone mentions within earshot that your plate looks naff.


Personally I always keenly anticipate and enjoy Yonex's rabidly venomous responses to discussions concerning any of the many manifestations of number plate fkuckwittery as they invariably reaffirm and reinforce my own empirical views regarding the demonstration of self serving entitlement and fkuck the law mindset of the mouth breathers who choose to do so. biggrin

Flattered.

It’s actually a sage reminder when you post things about remaining, within the law at all times, that keeps me going. To know that you’re the flag bearer for an entire sub forum of hypocrites.

I’m not sure what’s more amusing. The fact you’re a hypocrite, or the fact you don’t have the mental capacity to understand what doesn’t actually affect, or concern your obviously, very not busy life smile

I imagine you furiously documenting transgressions and heading off to the police station, only to be told to ‘feck off’. Again.

Still. Keeps you off the roads.

What does how much money someone has, or hasn't, have to do with anything?

You're fawning over someone you don't know on the grounds he's got money and therefore can do no wrong it seems.

Like people who squeal "you're only jealous!" when someone has the temerity to not automatically like whatever expensive 'thing' someone else has bought.

Sorry, I just don’t care. Life’s too short to worry about meaningless bs like this.

Guilty your honour, running a GT3RS, not putting a front plate on it.

Makes a lot of aesthetic sense for some classics and other older cars which had no proper location for a front plate on their aerodynamic snouts, e.g., E-Type, several Lotus models, early Mazda MX5, etc. Owners often used stick-on numbers, but they could be illegal because their slope diminished legibility.
I agree with this.

I do think a typical modern box saloon needs a front plate. Alfa aside.

If any of the above brings you to the brink of anger, I'd say you have unresolved inner issues. Getting angry, over strangers, on the Internet. OK then.

13 pages...the simple fact is that you are required to run a front numberplate in the U.K, motorcycles apart.

It shouldn’t be considered optional, but the current low level of fine and the fact that it is non endorsable hardly discourages the practice.

Do I care? Not particularly, but I am surprised the authorities do not take more of an interest in light of ANPR use etc.

Police should be issued self tappers and a drill to refit numberplates that have ‘fallen off’
This would actually be a good idea imo, they should also log it onto their systems that this said car has had its plates refitted. That way, if they were to take it off again and be caught, they'll have no excuse.

Others would view this suggestion with a different opinion, maybe something along the lines of "it should never be the polices responsibility to fit plates back on.."


On a different note, I would never remove my front plate but I must admit, a few cars out there look way sexier without them on.

Aesthetically speaking, my neighbour's floral hanging baskets would look so much better outside the front of my house than theirs, so last night I deleted them from their property and optioned them either side of my front door figuring, "hey it's just soil and flowers....".

To me it paints an extremely negative view of the driver. At best it's tasteless and at worst it marks someone out as a troublemaker - a problem.

What are you actually hoping to achieve with the repeated sarcasm? Is it winning the internet you’re after, or something else?

Sarcasm is having the highest post count on this thread mostly containing argumentative comments about what other people think and do.

If you don't like being answered, I suggest you stop being someone who constantly tells every one else what to do and post something positive instead for once.
