hey are black number plates legal for a h reg series 2 escort?

black with sliver letters or will i get the old bill pulling me over all the time?

 

not sure mate but fink there illegal over here ok abroad ??

 

iv seen quite a few rs turbos around my area appearing with black number plates.. well i think theres a crew of about 3 cars who are useing them and they luk the nuts... in heathrow. i got a white car and think they will look the part..

 

the reg its self has to be a certain year old, H plate will be a illegal it was years and years b4 that.

you probs get fined everytime they pull you over.

 

Illegal....I get away with it tho (Well I was stopped once, but that was just unlucky! )

 

Beat me too it, was gonna mention you had em!

Post up a pic Ad, look the nuts!

 

lol i guess ill have to take my chance.... cuz they luk the part... but they probly dont stick out as much on a black car as much a white car wud?

 

 

Yea they stand out a bit, but set the car off imo

 

Adam - You keep them on everyday?

 

i got stopped but let off with a warning and told to change them, you will pass an MOT but they are illegal, fucking stupid if you ask me

 

Yes

But IF I actually ever used the car then I wouldn't do - The point is, if you live in a city and use your car every day, don't run them because it will just give the c*nt traffic cops something to do

I carry my ordinary plates in my boot with screws (as my black ones are just stuck on ) and I play the "Oh...shit i've just come from a meet/show and totally forgot to change them back..." card.

 

Better be getting some Ł60 notes printed and keep a stash ready in the glove box my friend

 

lolll i only drive the car rarely but heathrow is a bit of cra p area for getting stopped.. i may get them and keep a spare set in the boot just in case.. play that oh i forgot card... lol

 

illegal if the car is newer than a certain date

the black number plates were used many years ago ad were replaced wit yellow ones for better visability

 

Yea, think its like 79 or something aint it?! mines 10 years to young, at least

 

pre august '73 . i know because i used to have a late 73 imp and my mate had a 72, always p...ed me off that.

 

 

You rebel


I actually left my black plate on coming home from Brunters, then to the Essex Meet..... Then the way home..... All becuse I forgot, officer.

I usually use a fully legal rear one though because not having a front one at all they will think I am just taking the piss.

 

Very true

But, your front end looks With the GRS and the front bumper with no plate

 

Ooooooooh...... stop it you
