Hi there, nice pics!
But I would strongly recommend, you DO NOT POST PICS THAT SHOW YOUR REG NUMBER !!!!!!!!!!!
Doing so could expose you to having your plates copied and used on another car.
You will recieve any fines though if your plates are copied as the registered keeper, I hope you don't get caught out.
Can you delete the reg number from the pics???

Thats is one I thought of many years ago when I first got into car forums, but we have discussed this and quite rightly as Bobby says its look out your window and see.
I have a few friends that have had reg numbers cloned and believe it or not we have had insurance claims at work saying is ******* your reg, I check, say yes, they say it was involve in an accident in Darlington with our client, I say sorry that bus is in our Aberystwyth depot, they say "Bus? it a transit van our client said hit him" we say "Oh" happens all the time, any plate anywhere, by the way you dont get fined as long as you can prove your vehicle was elsewhere
