    If they have the bsau number then they are legal because they are of the right type plate with the correct spacings and font and are also reflective

    UK pressed plates are not the best, but they are better than normal if you are going to be abiding by the law

    As said, you can get pressed plates that have the reflective coating on them now so are legal. I quite like them as they're not obviously different from normal plates but catch your eye.

    Do you have any pics of them on a Clio mate? Been looking for some but not seen them on a Clio.

    You can get legal pressed plates. I had them on my old Punto, they even had the postcode marking and were reflective. I think clean plastic plates suit the Clio more though tbh

    Cheers. Yeah it is a shame but I run the risk anyway! Always change them to standard for going into England!

    You can't get legal French pressed plates. Just legal British pressed plates
