It's not but some people believe that if the number plate is visible then everyone that see's it will know the identity of the owner, where they live, how much they have in their bank account and who they voted for in the last election.

Yeah an it's totally different to say, seeing the same car on the road?

No use in blocking reg plates really.

It's not like that... Sometimes im asking for hiding the reg number if i put photos to internet, so im hiding them cause i dont need any problems (thats happend with F40 - last which i remember)... once i was asking to not taking a photo of car (black SLR in Dublin - irish reg) - that was only once in my life when someone told me i cant take a photo of his car - i have it anyway - 1st SLR in my life. I'm not hiding reg if i taking photos on official events (only sometimes - that's my habit and i dont know why).

First time when someone complain about that

Some photos from today (octane cars & coffee meeting). Some nice cars there... The best one was BMW 1M i passed it on M50 and i have to say that car look amazing.

That's Cherrywood! I work in the park and never knew that this meet was happening :mad:

I would have loved to go and take a look. I am sure the kids would have enjoyed it too.

This VW van should probably go in a vintage section but I like it anyway. I included the range rover in the pic for scale purposes only.

Well it's definitely a rarity...say, for every 100+ S-class Mercs here there's probably 1 Panamera.

Some more
The Ferrari Galleria is just of the main road to the ferrari factory
The Pagani Factory/Dealer is the Castelfranco Emilia Industrial estate, email in advance and its 24 euro to get a tour, but its well worth it
The Lamborghini Factory/Museum is in San't Agata Bolognese its on the Main road, the Museum has classic, Modern car and Concept cars from over the year's its a lovely place, the factory is very good too, you cant take your camera's into the factory which is a shame because you have to pass through a courtyard full of Lamborghini's 50+
The Auto museum in turin is fantastic tbh is more a celebration of the car than a museum, its mostly full of old Lancia's Alfa's and Fiat's for some stange reason:D but it still has other great cars like old caddys, jags and so on, If you have any more questions to ask go ahead
