ebay do them for £16 a pair but non of the pressed plates are legal even with the gb on them because there is no british saftey standard stamp on them

WRONG - you can buy 100% road legal pressed plates from dubmeister.co.uk

They had them checked and ok'd by VOSA and the DVLA.

Not if you have a period correct car. i.e. if I still ran my Mk1 Cortinas (1966), I could run black and silver plates.

Same as me, spacing is correct but without the stamp you can still get pigged for 30quid
