A word of warning on Fancyplates - if your car is post 2002, it must have the postcode of the plate issuer and a British Standard mark on it otherwise you'll fail your MOT (at a straight garage anyway) - Fancyplates don't put the BS mark on there but there's another online co who do, can't rememeber the name off the top of my head though banghead

Dunno - but if it isnt displayed on the plate it is illegal and a MOT failure. (Happened to me)
