Not really. If Mr/Mrs plod didn't get any Nookie then they may turn round and pull you. Otherwise they'll just drive past.

Oh and if you do get pulled, don't play dumb. Just admit it and you may get off with it.

I've been pulled twice, got let off once and £30 fine 2nd time. I mush have driven past 100 police cars in a year, so not too bad.

Fair enough, just saying because the recess is bigger that it looks out of place.

Don't worry about it. I asked that you look in my garage

At the end of the day, you'll still not fit one to yours and i'm going to keep it one my Corsa.

However, on my Astra, the plates are standard size with standard font. I did that because i thought that on the Astra, it just didn't suit the car with a smaller plate.

Each to their own.

Mr Timberland, you can have a lookie through
