How do I get a new licence plate?

LilacNails

Hi,

As the title says, how do I go about getting my license plate replaced? It's going to tatters a bit, before it gets worse I'd like to sort it.

Go to a motor factors and buy one.

Or online. Eireplates etc..

Moforfactors as above will be cheaper most likely. Likes of autocare

As said, most local motor factors will do it for you. Some while you wait.

Halfords do them but might ask you to show your log book

Expect Halfords to be way dearer than local motor factors

Some will ask for proof that you own the car so bring the logbook.

When they become "tags" then we have an issue.

Honestly never heard either to refer to the actual plates, they're "number plates"!

This "licence plate" stuff is pure Yank, there is no "licence" associated with a car in this country. At least the OP spelled "licence" the correct way

But yeah, motor factors.

Yes, almost as bad as "driver's license".

Not issued since 2004. It’s called the Vehicle Registration Certificate now.

Yeah but we’re being pedantic about what things are called. Keep up!

Such sticklers for the English language, if only you had you own language you could use, maybe they could teach it in all the schools.
