Pressed Plates

[gregperkins]

Hi guys,

I've noticed alot of you have pressed plates on your cars?

I am 18 in 2 weeks, and would like some as a present..but are they definitely road legal? It's all to do with the reflectiveness isnt it?

Has anyone been pulled for having them?

Any help would be appreciated

Cheers,

Greg

Yeh i was looking on dubmeister. I just dont want to keep getting pulled over

Got mine from dubmeister, fully road legal apparently. They have/need the postcode of where they were produced, and have a British standards number on them.

You need to show your V5 and driving leicence to get them, just like a standard plate.

Oh and never been pulled.

Sounds promising mate Thanks I really want some, i think they look proper retro A clean look to both ends of the car

I'll speak to my bro and dad about it

Had a set of dubmeister road legal pressed plates on my MK4 Polo. They looked the biz and I was very happy, never got pulled for them either. To be road legal they need to be reflective, correct font and spacing and stamped where they were made.

I'm after a set for the MK2 golf but haven't had the V5 through yet, you need to email them a copy of your licence (with your address etc) and a copy of the V5. I just scanned mine so still have a copy of the licence, just need the V5 scan.

Heads up if you find any group buys as i'll be in

Thanks for the info mate

Think im going to wait a year until i get the GTI to get a set of pressed plates. Only got my car another year so not really much point now. I got a new set of VW plates when i got the car anyway, so they're in perfect condition
