Apparently is legal as there's only 6 digits on my Reg, am dubious though:

May have smaller borders than most but the letters are big enough, could we be legal...

https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/s ... plates.pdf

n Characters must be 79mm tall
n Characters (except the number 1 or letter I) must be
50mm wide
n The character stroke (the thickness of the black print)
must be 14mm
n The space between characters must be 11mm
n The space between the age identifier and the random
letters must be 33mm
n The margins at the top, bottom and side of the plate
must be 11mm
n Vertical space between the age identifier and the
random numbers must be 19mm(?)

It's all baldrocks TBH. My commuter hack had a 6x4 on it. My MOT guy pointed out that it wasnt leagal, but didnt put it on the MOT... :thumbup:

The reason they want the plates a legal size is so camera's can read them...I still got a nick by a camera van in a 50 zone with the 6x4 so go figure.

Put the small one on Mav & stick a full size one on for the MOT...we wont tell anyone... :lol: :lol:
Making up since 2007, sometimes it's true...Honest...
