Number Plates: How Small Can You Go?
Hi all,
I have a 5 character private plate and i'm really tempted to get one of the smaller number plates made up.
Does anyone know what, in the eyes of the law, is legal/illegal?
Cheers
Kel

My plate is 5 characters and I've got away with a 280 x 80 plate for a couple of years now. Looks much better IMHO.
However, my production manager has a normal PX53 *** plate, and he gets pulled repeatedly for it.
As in the link by corradoboy, its down to the character size- mine don't look too small, but when you try to squeeze seven characters on they look really small.
