Euro Plate

I am thinking of getting a Euro plate for the front of my smart. I already know what I want it to say but I am torn between the country of origin for the plate. The car is made in France so I wanted a French plate but if you see any publicity photos they all have a German plate because of Mercedes. Let me know what you all think...

A dept. store in Germany was selling those. I got mine to say 41 MPG. Paid 7 euros and waited 5 minutes. Really cool.

European Plates

Check out this site:

Custom Front License Plates, Personalized Vanity Auto Plate -LICENSEPLATES.TV

They'll make any plate you want, almost any country you want. Top-notch quality. I've used them many times for vintage British & French cars.

I note that the German plates are different (at least in number/letter combos) based upon municipality. Anyone know if France have similar distinctions?

Without any vested interest, I refer and suggest gominigo.com for both Euro plate and frame plus 'No holes' mount for front of your car.

If you have a problem getting a euro plate, PM me and I will post the number 1 manf. of custom euro plates (They own the German machine) and import euro frames. (no mounts).
