Wow, fantastic service!

Where do you go if you want new registration plates for your car? The same place you go for everything else, of course, the Internet! When I searched the Internet to find out how to get my car registered in France, I kept reading stuff about how you take the registration paperwork to some place or other to get your plates made up. Blow that for a lark! Yesterday I just searched – in French of course – for number plate makers, found one, paid by debit card and sent a copy of my paperwork over by email. Then VOILA! This morning at about 10.00am, my new plates arrived by courier. How good a service is that! Later on I replaced my old British plates for these new French ones making my transition to full French resident almost complete 🙂

Now here’s my car with its new French identity! Notice I’m a proud resident of Departement 24, the Dordogne, in the ‘region Aquitaine’ 😉

Only one down-side. Now I’ve got a French registration, I’ll have to start being much more careful about speed cameras 😀
