hey guys

my front number plate is on the right hand (drivers side) of the front of the car. because its there it sorta bends slightly around the side of the car.

im not sure if a camera will or wont pick up my whole plate so im wondering if its illegal?

standing in front of the car it is totally 100% visible tho.

well i had my number plate on the right hand side for a while and guess what ... i still managed to cop a speeding fine from a camera.

i was also pulled over while having my plate there and they didnt say anything

Well as long as your number plate is visible from the front it is still legal.

If you see current Alfa Rome models, they all have front number plate at one side due to the fact that they have that weird triangular grill....

depends if you want to take the chance of attracting attention to your car.

I had mine on the right because of the clever-heads and bentley garage. When i got pulled over by a cop he whinged about it and threatened to fine me $100 if he saw it there again.

Might not be illegal, but it only takes one policeperson to argue otherwise and you will have a fine or be attracting them to look over the rest of your car.

I've been over the pits twice they said nothing,been pulled over a few times and nothing and then one day a cop said "You can't move the number plate more than 10cm's from the original spot" and I said I've been over the pits and he said "ok thats alright then" LOL

    • You're probably right about that one. Thanks for your suggestions, I hope I don't need a new 3rd brake light. Although wiring issues might arguably be worse. Right now I'm in the midst of a turbo removal because of my oil leak, other problems are going to have to wait for now.
    • Hell, I know that much. So far I just put it off as "part of the deal".
    • I removed the head expecting to find broken and bent valves, but instead found number 1 at TDC and cylinder 2 at the top of its cylinder stroke as well, thought that was weird and proceeded to push cylinder 2 back down until it either bottomed out on its other piston half or the conrod either way we found the issue kind of,  now to remove the engine and see how the block looks, hopefully its just the top off a piston.  
    • A little more work this week.  Fitted astra power steering pump in the boot with a lowe fabrication bracket. Gave the pump a good clean, fitted Anderson plug and high pressure fitting. With the intercooler being flipped under rad support factory headlights weren't going to work. Ordered a set of origin battle lights, they arrived so got them test fitted. Will require some fiddling to fit nice but was an easy quick option for now. And today we pulled out the manual Rb gearbox and test fitted a ZF 8HP50. It will fit with some casting tabs cut off and small tap of the tunnel with a hammer. Pick up the adapter plate Wednesday so hopefully all bolted in Friday and measure for tailshaft which will be a 2 piece. Been doing a lot of ecu, pdm and tcu loom design so when comes to wiring it in a few weeks will all go smoothly.
