Tippers supplied a pressed aluminium silver on black front plate (UK motorbike plate) for me, which fits the Italian front number plate holder, if that is the car's original place of registration I understand you can still us that size plate in the UK and therefore it is legal, I assume you can do the same for the rear plate. Ensure you have the v5 document first to avoid any legal issues (£10,000 fine per plate made by number plate makers who do not register your V5). Does anyone here know if UK ANPR cameras recognise non standard plates? Richard
I know mine are detected on the Dartford Crossing - so by inference must be legal! Actually my MOT man said its all about legibility. If they can be read from a prescribed distance they are legal. The issue I have with folk who have silver on black plates when their vehicles are not 40plus years old....
