Hi All

Looking for a recommendation to buy new number plates please,if anyone has found a good online supplier I would be most grateful,especially if I can have the MB badge on the left side in black as a replacement for the current EU version I now have

Thanking you

Paul

Ive used sandhurst autoprint for 2 sets of lipped plates before. Where I put a web address on the lipped area, doubtless you could put a MB logo and wording to do something a bit different.

They should be for that price!!!!!
£20 for a pair of numberplates isn't particularly expensive is it? I've always bought my plates from Plates for Cars.

Please please Don’t use Plates for cars.
Customer service and the way they treat people leaves a lot to be desired.

In my experience with them there is nothing wrong with their customer service at all :)

They sold me plates that were wrongly spaced , and my vehicle failed it’s mot.
I contacted them and they refused to believe me, and then started getting abusive .

Never had an issue with Plates for Cars. I guess you had a bad experience.

Something doesn't gel here, it is extremely unlikely that number plates with the wrong spacings would be sent to you unless you asked for them like that. Secondly if they did come with the wrong spacings unsolicited why would you fit them and not return them to 'Plates for Cars; ?
