As above I do pretty much most plates but are not allowed to do the proper logo'd RSOC ones. They get arsey about it!! (even though I wouldve thought at the moment they need as much positive advertising as possible )

Reason Chris cant do them is because they're trade mark'd and the RSOC pay to use the Trademark.

Chris, his are the printed type

I only ever get standard ones off him for the odd car for friends etc, he has about 5 websites with similar names and also sells a lot via ebay.

Most of his plates are sold for off road use so cuts down on paperwork.

Wont this paperwork side of things affect any dealings with supplying clubs and the like ?

I asked about suppying them about 2 years ago & they weren't interested
don't think they wanted to get involved as in the supply of number plates due to the implications with the dvla & police regarding documents that you now need to produce.
