black and silver plates on post '73 cars is just another way of voluntarily contributing to the "idiots tax" pot which keeps the cost of motoring down for those who have realised that not only does it cost you money but it makes you look like a complete k**b.

They know what they are doing and the consequences, so let them get on with it.
