    Thanks!

    I've had to radically rethink the car I'm going to buy, but I'm sure it'll all be fine.

    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Whereabouts you moving to?

    Thank you to all who repied. (Although I am wishing I had never asked now!)
    There was a rather more serious and personal reason for me wanting the pictures removed and thanks to the advice given by NBE, [EMAIL="ric@findthatfuchsia"]ric@findthatfuchsia[/EMAIL] and 1jim, the faces have now been succesfully blurred out.
    Thanks again,

    No street maps for my address. :(

    Ive no clue where you live, but they do seem to have a plan of mapping just about everywhere they can in time. For example, Prestons not yet on but it IS being mapped as I type this

    I'm curious as to why if this wasn't a big deal why did you want your number plate removed?
    Unless you remove the plate whenever you park the car and it's in full view of anyone who passes by, why are you concerned that someone miles away, like me, would be able to read it?
    Do you drive around with your plate covered/hidden? why ask for it to be removed from street view?

    I don't want the above to sound as if I'm having a go - i'm not and if it does then i apologise. I'm genuinely curious why you wanted it removed.

    I don't think you're having a go, I was expecting someone to comment anyway !

    Google said all number plates were blurred, mine wasn't, I told them about it but didn't really expect them to do anything and I wouldn't have complained again if they hadn't.

    Don't really have a good reason for telling them, must be the software tester in me, their software had a defect, I told them about it and they fixed it quickly which is exactly how it should be !
