That's a smart motor - you can keep your metallic paints, nothing looks sharper than a cleaned and polished white van!
Where did you get the plates done? Nice touch... |

Is it easy to get number plates? I thought you had to take your documents along to verify that you actually had the van. I think that rear number plate holder is cool, got to have one, especially as the sh1te plastic thing on mine has been fitted crooked. Every time I clean the van I push it down on one end to try and straighten it up, even though I know it won`t! a bit like rubbing at a scratch, even when you know it will not disappear !

You can just order the plates online,they are sold as not road legal,but in 4yrs of having them, i've never been pulled,you dont have to have a space between the letters and the no.s
The holders will take UK plates as they are the same size

Welcome GR8 T5
Why not go all the way and add the engine cover to?
No one has a clue until you pull in to fill the screenwash and then all the vito/ french filth drivers just go green, !!!!
 And you can be soooo smug
Part nos etc in tech bit- they all work at the stealers and dont forget to batter them for discount as you did all the find and seek work!!
