Default Plates (one for Ken n co)

Assuming that the affliction whereby I go all nostalgic for original styleee number plates catches up with me, I take it that I would need to source the images?

Personally, I hate having decals in the windows if they aren't from the original car spec. so no window stickers for mein ur.

Anyone have images of such things for
Edinburgh Audi
January 1985

That should be my UR sorted. Either that or a couple of euro-plates

There are two Edinburgh VAG Dealers from back then,

JM Sloan & C. Ltd, 454 Gorgie Road, Edinburgh, Tel. 031 346 1661

and

Trust Motors, 69 Marionville Road, Meadowbank, Edinburgh, Tel. 031 652 1691.

If you do not have an image of a correct Dealer Plate to copy, Dave at DMB can make some up in the generic VAG UK font of the time. To be fair, a lot of Dealers had their plates like this anyway. Phil (Pearlmars) and Darron (Oldsynth) on here have had some made up in the generic font.
Well worth doing.
