funny thing is they are illegal because they reckon the camera s they use can not read them ! how did they reckonize you to send you the letter ????????? :confused:

A real person perhaps? The camera can still take a still image - if ANPR wasnt able to read it, it was probably flagged to be checked. Although the plate wasnt machine-readable, clearly it was still human-readable as they have been able to track you down.
Only 250.1bhp - but with that noise, who cares?

As I posted earlier: [Pay attention at the back!]


....I expect that the (illegal, whether you like it or not) plate initially threw up an alert which then actioned a much closer look with enhancement technology, which consequently resulted in the owner's address etc.


....I saw Saint Steve's German plates last night and must say they look better in the flesh. But legality is essential.

I can attest to dubmeister plates. Quick service and 10/10 quality.

I didn't like the idea of posting them my v5 (dont think a copy is allowed), so if i recall i picked them up in person, v5 in hand.

When I had some off dubmeister last year, they accepted a scanned copy of my v5 by email - it made it very easy.

Someone should investigate a group buy - Robin could be the man :laugh:
