Nice, just need to move the N across but I suspect that is also not allowed.

Sorry to burst your bubble (again) but they are illegal too! :wink:

Everything is illegal except for the BS 145e standard black font. It's so the authorities can keep an eye on us all with their ANPR cameras. Cameras struggle to read anything different, so they ain't allowed (unless your car is really old.

    Good to know the Police still had time for fining people for illegally-spaced number plates during Covid. :thumbsup:

    They always seem to have time to stop and fine me whatever is going on in our wonderful world :D


    After issue I did say there was no f***ing chance they’d seen the mis-spacing at the speed I’d passed them at :rofl:


    The Covid comment was because I refused to take the ticket because they couldn’t provide me with details/proof of their sanitation regime as I was shielding (I kid you not, I out and out refused to take it for that reason to piss them off, they were wasting my time so I felt it was only fair to reciprocate :P ) I told them I’d take a picture of it if they’d stand 2 meters away and I’d use it for anything I needed to
