Moderately extreme...
My front one has a nice 'starburst' crack where it's been whacked by a pebble or somesuch. The back one has developed a sort of 'fogging' effect, which seems to be between layers of whatever... I'm sure they are still quite legal.. but I'm trying to smarten the car up a bit whilst keeping it all original..
So. I found a company online who will make me new plates, complete with the EU symbol and 'GB' to the left side.. as per original. I understand that as original fittings these will remain legal, but I'll still have to add a GB plate if travelling abroad as the 'EU/GB' bit is no longer valid. I'm also quite happy to announce my continued preference for EU membership over Brexit.
I see that all new cars from Sept., must have the left hand 'GB' section either carrying a Union Flag, or a Welsh or Scottish flag. A quick survey of cars on the street revealed that all except mine have 'plain' number plates, with no left hand 'GB' etc. section. They are all recent reg cars. I'd assume that they too will need to carry a GB sticker if travelling abroad.. and it's not clear whether 'plain' plates will be legal on new registrations from Sept.
What a bloody mess. Thoughts?
