Online Number plates - best and cheapest

[andyxxx]

I was just about to order a rear plate for my trailer (which I already thought was expensive at £18) continued to check out and stopped once they wanted another £6 for postage.

£24 for a single plate!!!
Are they all the same or has anyone a link to a site please?

Halfords is about 16 quid for a single plate? I got mine done there, show up get them to do it, check it, leave. Easy peasy.

eBay, I generally pay about £10 for a pair.

But that means going outside....

I bought a single rear plate from eBay seller 'incarmart' - £6.99 including postage. Excellent quality, quick delivery and has the postcode print it needs to be legal.

Last time I went to Halfords for plate they got the numbers the wrong way round...

Indeed one of mine wasn't printed right either but then if your there it can be fixed right away as supposed to mailing things back.

Purchased both front and rear plates on ebay, usually about £10-11 for a set, or you can specify x2 front or x2 rear etc.

Been through a good few MOT's with no issues before anyone comments on the legality

They came from this seller; regdeco http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/regdeco/m.html?_nkw=&amp...

Yes. And most pleasing of all, they don't cover the plate in stupid black writing to advertise their services. The legal requirement stuff is minimal size and very faint so almost invisible.

Very true! Simple clear plate with no pointless inlays (unless you order them) so they fit nicely into a proper plate holder for a smart clear finish.

Are you saying Halfords will let you request the Halfords name/font is printed in a shade of my choice? Mind you no matter how obscure I don't want Halfords name on my car - but presumably you can have their code instead of name?
