Yep me too I got a set. Guy who makes them is very good and the finished product looks so much better than some old car sales place or in my case a leasing company. When I emailed him he said he had made quite of few of them so it looks like these are popular.

Just to follow up on this ordered the plates on Wednesday night arrived with me on Friday 9.00am.

Superb service and communication from the seller and good quality plates.

Cool

Just seen this again when I clicked 'New Posts' - so I looked at the sellers feedback and he has been doing a brisk trade in Rover 75 plates!

I suspect he is now getting used to being asked 'can you do them with MG ROVER at the bottom?'

He certainly seemed to be! Maybe you should ask him for some commission?

The font is as it should be and i reckon thats why i have passed

Good work on getting these made up, but are you sure the logos used are correct? The Rover badge looks far too dark, and I'm pretty sure the MG badge used is totally wrong. It looks more of a 1980's style MG badge. The text looks spot-on, however.

I'm prepared to be corrected, but it's not how I remember the 'original' and genuine MG Rover Group plates to look.

the font and the logos were discussed earlier in the thread and were deemed identical,even the original longbridge post code is added to the plate..a complete replica.

Fair enough.

It must be me, but I thought that the MG logo that you've got in your signature was the one that featured in all the corporate branding - including these number plates. I still reckon the one used looks a bit too 80's.
