Although I prefer to have the number plates fitted with D/S tape it's good to see that although they have drilled the rear plate they appear to have used the proper threaded holes in the tailgate. I think that is the first one I have seen where the dealer has used the template to fit rear plates.  :thumb:

This prompted me to go and check my car, and yes, it looks like Thames have done my plate like that too.

Didn't get a full tank of petrol from them, not even when they cocked up one of my tyres. I think you must've got lucky there, nagle.  :P

My plates the same  :thumb:

I fully expected to have to fill her up, even planned where the petrol stations were positioned, but to my shock it was full.  Even though i did get quite a good discount and good price for what i got  ;D
