Because there are people who will clone your plate, you get all the speeding and parking tickets. It is widespread I'm dealing with it all day.


I understand that with a model of which there are many examples on the road, but something as rare as a Morgan ?

And surely, every time your car is out on the road people can see and copy down the reg number in any case.

Or am I missing something ?

Is it not just like for like cars ? I would imagine Morgans rarely if ever get cloned ?

Sorry for causing a bit of thread drift !

As others have said ,I can sort of understand this with mainstream cars , but is anyone really likely to do this with a Morgan ?

Also as Giles said everytime you're out on the road or parked anyone can see your reg

I was generalising about covering number plates, not being specific to Morgans of course. Think you were missing something ooo
