          To clear this one up, 'green lanes' (which the publicly accessible trails on Salisbury Plain are) are bound by the usual rules of the road. You need MOT, TAX, Insurance, and reg plates. A lot of pay and play sites insist that your vehicle is road legal too, at least for certain days.

            thats how i understand it to be too dude

            if any one intends to go offroad but dont want to lose ya reg plate
            reg plates mainly fall off or get cracked in half
            to cure this is simple
            move the reg plate so it sit with a solid surrface behind it
            mine bends to the bash plate were its fully supported
            and i have not lost my reg plate ever
            if its suppoted right it will not come off
            am not die lex sick its you that cant read mate

                  Some of the plate regs are cr*p.

                  My plates are from tiger same as you mate. Just went for a toyota badge an a lil thing along the bottom. Both of which are MOT failures acording to the posters there... luckily no one gave a sh!t about it.

                    i had my front plate taped with white insulating tape to my passenger sun visor for months, and never had any problems with the law, even stopped and asked a copper at an ANPR van if it was legal and he said strictly speaking no but his camera had read it fine so he thought i was unlikely to ever get pulled for it, so long as it was clearly visible and readable from outside the car

                      I thought they had to be reflective? The sticky ones aren't and are therefore illegal. I got fined years ago for having a sticky one on the bonnet of my Tiger Avenger, the reflective thing was the reason given for the charge.

                        you can still get white and yellow reflective self adhesive backgrounds from factors but even those carry a sticker 'not for road use'
                        I know there is something that says a plate must be tamperproof, I got arround this by getting a background, sticking seperate letters on then covering with a clear self adhesive film...bit like fablon I have been told the only requirement it does not meet is having the reflective standard on it but as it is an 'M' plate that is not a requirement if original....which of course it is!
                        Did I mention I have a BLUE one

                              Since this post has been dragged up I'll add my two pence worth. Used to have a stick on number plate on the bonnet, but got stopped by a very pedantic police officer and had to get a proper one.

                                My jeep has an aftermarket front bumper from warn which is angled at the front and the original plate was here. It subsequently failed it's mot as the tester said it had to be straight up and down and not at an angle. It may be a mot requirement or maybe I came up against a jobs worth!
