EP3 Number Plate question

[Azazl187]

Hey guys. Hope your all loving your type Rs as much as i am. I am looking to personalise my number plate. I own a 2002 EP3 and my first name is Calvin and ive seen the perfect plates for it. They read as 'EP03 CAL' but people have told me i cant use it because it makes my car look younger than it is........ is this true??

Thanks

Yes, your car is a 2002, the plate your looking at is from a 2003 car, and it is illegal to make your car look newer than it is.

No you wont be allowed that plate on an 02 plated car im afraid.

Have you looked for K20 CAL?

 

[Azazl187]

Not available. Why K20?

 

[tom83]
