Reply To: French number plate
Chris
Sorry – I’m a bit late to the party.
My own french car had a curved front plate when I got it. It has silver letters from a British style plate which just about fit the original french plate. The K was interfering with the starting handle – hence the damage. This plate now lives in the garage and I have stick on numbers on the wing. They’re getting a bit tatty. Now that I no longer use the starting handle I’ll probably clean this plate up and re-attach it. One day.
Our local car parks, like those at Gatwick, use number plate recognition. I have never found any of them work with white on black plates even though the car is stopped in front of the camera. Somehow, though the Dartford crossing manages it when the car is travelling at 50 MPH. Moan over. As you were.
