The car was on a private plate for 15 years. When the owner traded it in he had it transferred to his new vehicle and the Rover car reverted to its original T registration. It was originally registered on 27th July 1999.
Due to a c**k up somewhere along the line the new rear plate was supplied as a standard size/shape, rather than the 75's smiley design, and, the 75 smiley plate was supplied with the private registration. It was no good to the owner as it wouldn't fit his new car.
It was left in the car, the dealer even pointed it out to me, so yesterday I drilled holes in it, fitted it and screwed the new plate with the original number over it. I'll probably have a R75 smiley shape plate made at some time.
Its all above board as I have the number/registration change documents from the DVLC.
