Continental gt rear plate?

[the tuscanier]

Hi there

Can any of you pre face-lift gt owners with a spare 5 minutes tell me the size of the larger than normal rear number plate? Car is currently away being detailed and want to use the time to order some new plates as I currently have a standard size rear plate, which I think doesn't look as good as the original which filled the apature.

Thanks in advance for your time.

Not sure which facelift you are referring to but mine is a 2010 coupe and the rear plate is 53.5cm x 15.5cm. I had it made up through 'Showplates'.

Have DVLA confiscated and cancelled it yet for being illegal display

Allow me to suggest that you delete that photo before DVLA spot it as being illegally displayed and spaced

Hi David, that's great, thanks for taking the time
Rear bumper changed in 2011

SantaBarbra, chill think/hope the dibble and the DVLA have better things to do than trawl the Internet looking @ plate spacing. And seens as it's a show plate I'm sure it's not used on the road!

I used Jack Barclay .
£69 for both ,correctly sized and JB logged with the london post code , for that price come with suffient sticky fixers .

Well think of the mpg and reconcile , in terms of annual running costs in a man maths kinda way .

DVLA do not confiscate plates...The police 'sometimes' issue warnings and give you a few days to replace it. The number is not illegal as it is 'OO 10 ODG' and as I mentioned I had these made up through a company called 'Showplates' which I put on when 'Showing' the car or taking photographs.

Likewise in that I used the local Bentley dealer which has recently become an independent (H R Owen Ecurie). Any main dealer will do. They'll supply the correct size for the rear plate when asked as per any dealer near the OP.

Correct, DVLA do not confiscate the plates, they're yours to keep. However, they can, and do, revoke the entitlement to the registration number. So, an individual can still keep their plates but no longer 'own' the registration number. The number isn't 'illegal', but the spacing is, however, we all acknowledge you don't drive it (or park it) on a public road


Doesn't answer the OP's question, though.

All sorted, thanks for your replies. Ended up with 2 sets 1, legal and 1 for show (old style black and silver)

Just waiting for the postman now
