Title: Road legal Number Plates - That will pass MOT and Police checks
Post by: Kiwi on October 12, 2010, 11:34:09 am

Hello All,

Where's the best place to get plates made, that will be road legal and pass an MOT ?

I know it has to have:-

•The British Standard number (currently BS AU 145d)
•The name, trademark or other means of identification of the manufacturer or component supplier (The company that made the plate)
•Name and postcode of the supplying outlet

I know Halfords do them, but the quality isn't the best, considering the money they're asking.

Thanks in advance

I have used a chap on ebay called Kwikpro in the past.

He states they are show plates however he can do pretty much what you want.

Not used these guys before but when planning a trip earlier in the year I was looking into getting some GB plates from them, seem reasonable and all legal but with alot of customisation options.  I was thinking of getting the forum at the bottom like the stickers but a bit more subtle!
