Off on holiday with bikes on the back - I have got hold of a number plate board to put on the bikes - where's the cheapest place to get a number plate?

    Possibly Halfords but don't forget to take your registration doc.

    The cheapest place is almost certainly the closest place to you after taking into account travel and time costs. So, online perhaps?

    A1 motor stores
    should be less than a £10 at your local store
    keeps local business alive and local people in jobs
    and they will have a dvla license to supply

    I got mine of ebay for around £3 for 2!

    Legal letters with the post code of manufacturer printed on them too. Arrived in less than 48 hrs.

    Most local autofactors will make your plates...take your Reg docs and proof of address.

    Keep your local shop open, you'll need a bulb on a Sunday, he'll be there and cheaper than Halfrauds...

    No problem can withstand the assault of sustained thought.
    Only after the last tree has been cut down. Only after the last fish has been caught. Only after the last river has been poisoned. Only then will you realize that money cannot be eaten.

    I prefer to have my plates made locally. I purchased a set from an ebay seller and they were awful, cheap and nasty, not even fit enough for a trailer!
