When it's bought direct from the DVLA, how long does it take from payment to being on the car?

Rob just do it be a devil !!

I got mine on last week its illegally spaced - J77DE J

Colin can't wait till I get pulled for it, cos he warned me not to space it like that

It would be funny if it happened when he's driving it!!!

How much could you get away with on the plate? i.e. spacing

I know it's daft when people space the letters, e.g. A123G BN

But what if I spaced it like this A 123GBN

Reckon that'd be easier for copper to stomach?

As we are talking about number plates, what's the deal if you have a fake plate on say '22 dlt' which isn't legally yours and you get pulled by the police?

well i would guess so, seeing as you could be driving with a number plate that isn't issued to the car whilst commiting burglaries, rapes, speeding past cameras and all sorts
