Let's see if we can make it clearer.
If we do not have the EU or any other marking on a rear number plate then it is required that some other form of country designation is displayed. In our case the letters GB at the requisite size, in the requisite font and displayed on the rear of the vehicle.
Hehe, maybe I should have read my own signature Sorry m8

Well I'm not sure who's correct, but when I go to Germany I put nothing on my car. I have the Welsh Flag and Cymru under it on my Front and Rear Plates and up to now has always been accepted, traveling across Europe.

I think the answer is to have both if you go abroad or none if you don't.
I think the plates look uneven with anything on the left and on some colour car combinations they even make the plate look off centre.

NO WAY WOULD I PROMOTE THE EU DUNG PARLIMENT. Unelected idiots


Its about time we left and traded only, like it was supposed to be, This week the EU fined us for not displaying EU flags on projects signed off by them to the tune of £150 MILLION POUNDS, YES THATS RIGHT £150 MILLION POUNDS!

The cheek of is this we give them £17 billion pounds per year, they take out £14 billion give us the change back (our original money) and tell us where to use it and then ask to advertise who brought the project (them) what a cheek its our money minus there cut and then tell us to be grateful....

NAUGHTY WORD-NAUGHTY WORD-NAUGHTY WORD- OFF comes to mind if there is one subject which begining to TICK THE BRITS OFF ITS THIS ONE......

TAKE OFF YOUR EU PLATES PLACE ON BLIGHTY AND WEAR THEM WITH PRIDE..REMEMBER EU STATE AID RULES ALSO HELPED TO BRING DOWN ROVER..NO WAY AM I WEARING THEM ON OUR FLEET.
