That, and you can see that they're lighting up from the cabin, so you know no-one has any excuse for ignoring them because going against type, I *do* use them

Edit: anyone who knows me on Facebook will know I've not mentioned a word of this on there.

The owner before me was called Matty and left it on.

I've memorised it already, which has been handy for insurance websites etc

It'll probably go at some point though - the mate who gave me a lift up does something related to number plate trading, he reckons it's an £80 plate but maybe that's just what he wants to buy it from me for so he can sell it for more....or it's just not that great a personal plate....

It’ll cost you £80 through dvla to take it off the car
