Ian, Thank you for pointing me to the previous thread. It would seem that I am not alone in my dislike of modern plates, however,I have no wish to fall foul of the long arm of the law for such a minor thing so on balance I think I will leave well alone.

I must admit that I mainly run reflective plates in the UK for both legality and visibility; however when venturing across the Channel, I often use the black and silver, as I think they look great.
They also go rather well with rather splendid black and silver GB plate (which mounts to the bumper) which I found at a jumble sale.
I've only ever had one issue in the UK and that was at one of the Morgan Centenary events; when a beligerent owner took exception to the plate; telling me it had no right to be on the car and
"diminished the integrity of the MSCC"I restrained myself from telling him what to do, but the lovely Lady Budster's look of distain left him in no doubt.
Her theory is that people like him have very small . . .
