  3. Yep, saw this on the news a couple of days ago! You really couldn't make it up could you? Boris and his chumocracy at its finest :rolleyes:

    I filed that little nugget under “who cares?”
    There are a lot of issues at the moment. Not being able to display a UK sticker on the back of a car isn’t one of them.

  5. But it's the other way around, GB sticker is now meaningless, tho I grant you that this issue pales into insignificance compared to the rest of the marmite that's happening.

    My point was that it's Boris and chums usual distraction nonsense, to take our mind off their shortcomings.
     
  6. I'm driving to Holland in November for work. So far I have spent about 5 hours trying to convince VWFS that my Golf with supplied GB plates is illegal to drive in Europe. The best they have come up with is an emailed scan of the V5, which is as much use as a one legged person in an arse kicking competition as all the websites state "only original documents are accepted".

    My number plates have a pending appointment with my chop saw.

  8. Richard is right, don't you just need a currently unobtainium UK sticker? Or, is there some other hidden gem in this one?
     
  9. As I understand it, there is nothing "illegal" about displaying "GB", wherever you go.

  10. Yes, agreed, but it's now a meaningless international designation.

    A quick look on fleebay shows quite a few UK sticker/magnetic plates available.

  13. I'd agree there are more important issues out there anyone else worried about how fast inflation is moving ...

  14. I need to look further into this, the info I read said they were illegal and needed to be changed. Might have been the BBC scaremongering again. Do you know there's a fuel shortage?

  15. Seems ok where I am :) ;)
     
  16. I'm not worried at the moment, the investment view is that it's most likely a temporary blip, that view can change, however.
     
  17. First E10 fuel, now UK stickers :rolleyes:

    Those lucky buggers in the Third World don’t know what an easy life they have…

  18. BBC should be charged for irresponsible reporting and creating a panic therefore creating a media frenzy the week of the Labour conference. Coincidence?

  19. Don’t be stupid just buy a Uk oval thing
    And put a Subaru sticker over the gb part of the plate if you’re that worried about it
