If someone wants to clone a car, all they have to do is go on-line to any car dealership/ebay etc and ALL registration plate details are there to see....which is much easier than looking on Forums for a particular make/model/colour of vehicle to clone.

there's loads of clowning going on on this site - be careful!

Not a good idea to show your car and registration number online.

Can i ask why? Doesnt every car have a number plate?

Its to do with cloning which is a growing crime at the moment.
Yes somebody could walk down the street and get your car details or see you driving about
but why increase the rick by putting them online for many more to see.

Oh I see. I'm not overly concerned about that as the car has been electronicly taged with Mazda which the police have access to. So if they do pull over my registration details even on a clone car it flags up addition information from Mazda which the police can quickly check without even gaining access to the vin numbers. It's all very clever.
