Do you get much grief from the police with those plates, or do you just use them as showplates?
P.S. Great car

They didn't stay on for very long
PS - Thanks to all those who commented on Sytner Leicester, they have got a bad rep around this way and it's quiet easy to see why.

So.....all the UK crew!
Hopefully when the weather picks up in March/April and we dont spend 15 minutes every morning scraping the ice off the windscreen....how about getting together for a UK meet?
It would probably be best somewhere Central so everyone has a reasonable travel time.
Any ideas on when, where & what?
Best to take into mind people who might be travelling a few miles, parking, cost, any weather permitting activities & so on & so forth.
I would suggest Leicester as a location as it smack bang middle of the M1....but to be fair theres not much to do round here!
Look forward to seeing some interest and ideas!

Some good curry houses in Leicester tho 
Im up for it
--------------------------------
I aim one day for my car to look like this Hamann machine....
I want some wheels which look like the Hamann 20inch jobbies, they cost like ?6700 GBP, stupid money, so until I find some wheels which are a reasonable replica im looking at various other wheels, just cant settle on a set atm.........
Short list atm is......as a placeholder at least are
19inch M6 Style Rims
19inch M-Sport Spyder type 172's
20inch Exe Penta's
They must sit with my other planned mods however...........Probably the H+R Race springs kit, Carbon Vented Bonnet ( maybe or maybe not painted ) , Carbon Hamann Splitter, Carbon Diffuser , Hamann Side Skirts............
It will basicaly look like this but without the Hamann wheels, but additionaly the carbon bonnet........., in the long run I want to find some decent Hamann Reps to finish the look, its the short term im looking at here as the 18's fitted atm look tiny on this car IMHO.
Opinions and advice welcomed, want a sollution sooner rather than later tho
