Plates

I wasn't sure about this so i thought i'd ask you guys. I'm getting a personalised plate and i wanted to know if BMW dealers would make them for you?

Halliwell Jones in Chester have made them up for me and a friend in the past but only when we bought new cars but then i went straight across the road to Halfords and had some more made up without the advertising at the bottom of the plate, i just prefer a clean look.

You could always ask Halliwell's if they will do it as a favour in return they get to have free advertising along the bottom.

Dealer did mine, when I transferred my plate onto my M5 I wanted new plates, they just said no problem. Although the plate was transferred onto my M5 before I picked it up.

I'd guess they would charge though, just try asking nicely.

Thats funny.

In our prisons, it appears they don't allow drugs and then compensate the inmates for enduring "Cold Turkey"

What a strange country (UK) we live in.
