Registration Plate

Is it legal to have the registration plate removed on the front of the MINI?

Are you sure that there aren't any trade plates displayed in the front and rear screen?

There is just one moon and one golden sun; And a smile mean friendship to ev'ryone; Through the mountains divide, and the oceans are wide; It's a small world after all.

LMAO

So where have you seen these cars?

Are you refering to pics you have seen on M2?

Maybe you are looking at cars in other countries, the only logical reason for the most stoopid thread ever

Well done

PMSL

The only problem I have is knowing which one to drive?

yes, we want photo's please, now that would be funny to see.

Are you going to tell us which part of England you live in and where you have seen them? Maybe you live in Camelot, that is a strange and mystical land of make believe

oh for those finding this as funny as I am I recommend you check out other posts by Tim

Well, I did check the DVLA site and that said there were exceptions for not having a front plate but that may relate to just Motorcycles. It didn't go into detail!
