Private plate spacing.

[2ltrT]

I've just purchased a private plate for me vecci



I know that legally it should have spacing of 11mm and 33mm between groups... buttt...

What are the chances of getting slapped with a fine if i reduced the space between the groups a few mm to say 25mm?



The plate is MI C** I’d obviously like rid of the space completely but I don’t want it to look Illegal as well as being illegal lol



Opinions?

just be careful not to go over the top and you should be ok
ive taken the spacing out of mine and had no probs

The spacing should be okay, but i've never seen 'stars' on a plate before!

All it takes is for a particular force to have a crackdown mate and your nicked if they see it.

Have a chat with 'Big Phil', as he's recently had a run in.

forgot to ask... can i legally reduce the size of the plate? as long as the letters and spacing is of the standard format?

These people will get you on the right track.

but they have limited their range recently - they did have cut out numberplates that had just the minimum spacing around each letter/number

Not legally mate. There's one standard and we are supposed to stick to it.

I would like to think that if you don't go too far most Patrols will let it go.
