That FMC plate is worth quite a lot to the right person!
FMC- Ford Motor Company.
FMC plates were used on a LOT of famous fords, inc WRC cars...

Thanks for the replies
Yeah the plate was the first thing I noticed when I saw the car! What other famous fords did they use FMC for? I know Jeremy Clarksons old Escos had it and the WRC cars?
Can't wait to get rid of those L plates! I wouldn't mind putting some S1 wheels on but it may sound stupid but I quite like the wheel trims it has
Thanks then!

Good plate.

Car was a bargain at £30. I paid £450 for mine 6 years ago and still have it. It's about to go to the scrap yard I think though as it's a little past it's best and I don't use it any more.
