Default Number plate spacing on import cars ??

Okay guys anyone able to clear this one up, recently bought a private plate and the plates it came with from previous owner on only had a spacing off around 20mm between the the letters and numbers ie. example plate " J50 NHS " the plate is fully stamped with maker, postcode and bsau mark, thought by law the plate had to have a min spacing off 33mm between groups ??

my actual plate would look better with a narrower gap ie this 20mm between the two sets off letters / numbers so just wonder what the actual law is regards this, possibly legal on import cars ?

Its an import and is now UK registered. Therefore it "should" comply with UK Law, why give plod an excuse.
