    On the subject of number plates, has anyone noticed a few cars now that have no plates on the front?  Rather than the plate being there, they have a fancy front grill. 
    I’ve seen a few round my area. 
    That would be illegal.

    Mine was held on with tape for a few days when a van reversed into the car and broke the screw mount (this was several years ago), but that was the only option until I was able to get a new one delivered.

    I've not noted that, but there are some cars with the number plate offset to one side.  Alfa Romeo is the most obvious example.

    The best one I ever saw was PEN 15, with no space between the letters and numbers of course - no joke!
    “Like a bunch of cod fishermen after all the cod’s been overfished, they don’t catch a lot of cod, but they keep on fishing in the same waters. That’s what’s happened to all these value investors. Maybe they should move to where the fish are.”   Charlie Munger, vice chairman, Berkshire Hathaway

    That plate is owned by Steve Parrish, 1970’s motorbike racer, truck racer & great friend of Barry Sheene! Is that you Steve182?
