Foreign Number Plates

[mrbig]

During lockdown, I spent some time 'mancaving' my garage and decided to put my collection of number plates up on the wall. It was then suggested that I collect number plates from countries I have visited, so if anyone has a plate from any of the following going spare please let me know:

France
Portugal
Ireland (ideally Corcaigh)
Poland
Turkey
Spain
Gibraltar

And the long shots:

China
Hong Kong


Obviously I am happy to pay, but ebay prices are nuts IMO for used plates so thought I would ask here!

Got a set from Portugal.
Will dig them out the garage and take a pic.

I should maybe have a French set, and I definitely have lots of Irish ones although not sure if any are for Cark. Half a possibility of Polish ones too.

[edit:
Quick check, can't find the other countries.
Ireland ones I have off right now:
plastic Dublin plate ('96)
pair metal Galway plates ('94)
plastic Wicklow plate ('94)

You're welcome to any of them that you fancy.]

Awesome, thank you!! French, Polish (if you can find them) and Dublin please!

Let me know what you want for them and how much postage is

[pedalcarjoe]

I think I may have a French one somewhere

I'll have a look for it tomorrow if I have time

[mrbig]

Sorry surprisingskoda, I forgot to PM you! Sent now.

I have a Hong Kong plate, and am pretty sure its not a pair.

BUT…. If I have a second one, you can have it for the price of Karma.

I seem to recall they are like the old black and white plates.


Be careful though, it is addictive.

That would be great, thank you.

I know what you mean about it being addictive, already having to find ways to increase available real estate on the garage walls

Still looking for plates if anyone has any going spare?
