Jellybean Posted May 10, 2008 Share Posted May 10, 2008 Failed me on NCT (MOT) today because I have Jap Reg Plate on Front (Square Plate ,like on Rear) and because Details of Garage are around reg plates (I said come out to the car park and I will show you 99% of cars have garage details around Reg Plates) The Guy doin the car was goin to pass me but his supervisor said to fail me They Even had went off to get measuring tap to see if rear Reg Plate was equal Distance between the top and Bottom Bumper area where Reg Plate is placed Offical complaint I think , robbing bastards How can rear plate be legal and front plate illegal ??? If they are the same Supervisor was one of those doderie old gits who thinks tea and biscuits with local church group is a good time and drives a clapped out Micra I have official Doc to say car passed everthing, and in Visual defects section (Reg Plates) Like WTF the Jap Plate is a visual improvement over the Rectangular Plate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jellybean Posted May 10, 2008 Author Share Posted May 10, 2008 What size are the characters on your plate? Same size, font as normal reg plate, only difference is the shape of the actual plate Square as opposed to a long rectangular http://mail.google.com/mail/?ui=2&ik=4dafd3c2a2&realattid=f_fezxzd989&attid=0.9&disp=thd&view=att&th=1194d129120addd1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daston Posted May 10, 2008 Share Posted May 10, 2008 the dvla state that all number plates should have the name of either the garage or the serial number of the place that made the plates visible. It is a bit harsh tho to say the least Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
