   Might be a silly question, but can a copper do you for having French plates on your car? Wouldn't mind some myself and can see a lot of people here have them too, any problems?

    yeh french plates are illegal and potentially 3 points but usually jus a fine. the police are clamping down on things like this now so if ur getting them then have an excuse ready

    Maybe 3 points as well! Not really worth it for me!
    
    Any French plate owners had any experiences with the police? Would be nice to hear from you!

    Had mine on since Decemember last year. Been pulled over and the number plates weren't mentioned.
    
    I got mine from craigsplates, £34 all together.
    
    Put the original plates in the boot, and say you've just come back from a car show and forgot to put them back on....
