Default Anyone own S200 OGJ plate?

I want it

Or something similar anyway. Annoyingly, my initials are GB, which means anything remotely personal is gonna cost a fortune - far more than I think is worth doing. So the other alternative is the initials to my online name that I've used for about 10 years for just about everywhere bar here (started off as a gaming handle).

Anyone know it?

Change the spacing and you will have a great looking plate - S2000 G
Plate looks good, but are you 'allowed' to do that to it? I've seen a similar plate that would suit me just fine, but have always been put off in case J Law comes a-knocking??? And who made the plate up for you? Whenever I've enquired, most shops aren't too keen to muck about with spacing.

No you are not allowed to change the spacing on UK registration plates, if you do get caught with it on you can get anything from a rap on the knuckles to 3 points on your licence.

So, is it just luck if you get away with it? Are the police really that bothered or is that all the various speed/DVLA cameras have a problem reading them?

Fancyplates will make up any plate you want - look them up on the web!

I covered 65,000 miles with my plate - wrong font, wrong spacing, wrong size

was never stopped!

Fancyplates will also add the S2000 logo at the bottom of the plate - and they use the right font for it too!

Personally I would not bother stopping a motorist regarding spacing on the number plate so long as it is legible and the correct font and size is used. Others may not be so lenient.

Doh...so it is. The G one's tempting too. Although both would require shifting the D and, much as I believe Middlers there, I know for a fact there are some jobsworth coppers around.

Hmm...
