Last Wednesday a nice guy came to my house and took this away....


But he also left me this......







Numberplates are being swapped this week for some that will be stuck on, to get rid of the screws!!

Is that how they come as standard or have they been diamond cut?
There's a Nurburgring that lives around the corner from me, looks perfect with these wheels on!
