ha, so you'd think but in the last 6 years I've been stopped 7 times specifically so that the boys in blue can measure the spacing on my plate, even though it was supplied by the dealer with their name at the bottom. Oddly enough it was OK when it was on my Honda HRV for 2 years, it only started when it went on my first MINI.
