probably, but its stupid though.Its probably so if you go through a speed camera the old bill might not bother issuing a ticket![]()
I especially like it. Like Laurence said, its an extra styling touch to make it seem like the car is from that particular country...so like as though your skyline was actually from/in japan, someone's mustang actually looks like its from Texas etc etc... I think ANY styling touch can be made to look chavvy (or not) by the way its applied, the kind of car its applied to and whether or not it fits any kind of aesthetic style.No i think it's very much a Euro touch, nodding to the German Styling, trying to create the car in an image most matching to its Country of Origin. It's attention to detail, I do like it. Don't think it's a chav thing at all, more of a purists thing, I know a few VW Old School DieHards with Golfs with the German Style Font on their UK Plates.
probably, but its stupid though.
as the UK is the only RHD country in western europe, and the police see a car which is RHD, but with foreign plates the first thing they'd do is pulling them over for a small check up.
what you could do though, is having the car registered in the country you want, but you have to insure it in that coutry to i think AND pay their road tax.
thats what i think though.
Well it does say E for Espana in the EU bit...If you want some plate combinations that make sense, let me know
That plate on the cupra looks like a french or spanish look-a-like
[email protected], why is it chav, ive never seen any scummy chavs with that, its almost totally the bigtime VW/French car fans.Has anyone else noticed that a new trend (chav?) is to have your registration plate look like it's from a foreign land, even down to an EU acronym of a foreign country!?
yes, but you have emmigrated to the UK, therefore live here.Not so true, as a frenchman, if I bring my car to the UK permanently (as I live here), I'll need to register it with the DVLA & therefore have UK reg plates
So you'll have a LHD car in the UK with UK reg plates
And regarding road taxes, they were "abolished" a couple of years ago in France
Thought about that to avoid the UK road tax, but couldn't find an insurance company who would insure me if the car is out of France most of the timeWhat happens if I register my car in a european country, at my friends address, insure it and all in that country and then drive it back to the ukIm sure you can avoid parking tickets, congestion charge and all
