Hi Guys,
Gregg just told me his number plates have been stolen and he has asked me to put the word out on here.
They were taken from Luton not too far from the hospital. If anyone see's them can you please reply here or let one of us know somehow where you saw them and what they were on. He has already informed the police.
Thanks.
Gev and Gregg.

Shouldnt be to hard to spot. Is the car insured, tax and MOTd? Hopefully it isnt because if they are on a car, it wil get flaggged up by traffic police !

Unfortunately it is 
At least he shouldn't get in trouble for any petrol runs etc as he's let the police know.

The number plate will be flagged as stolen so traffic cops should still pull him over iirc

Hopefully it is just kids that have stolen them. I know its not the point but less harm could become of it.

What do you think they do, peal the film off and write their own on it?
They do it, place them on a car and commit crime!

But then they would have to pay for them.
And im sure the police could find out an address for where the ordered plates were delivered to.

this happened to my sister, but they had plates made up so she was un-aware until she started getting speeding fines and phonecalls from the police. 
they used an identical blue bmw aswell, so it actually looked like her car. her reg was a private plate too M1 ***
police in different regions don't pass the information between them either, which makes things tricky if the plate is being used throughout the south east etc.
i hope nothing comes of it, can be massive hassle as it was for my sis.
