Re: Check your Number Plates
The term UK could of course be completely meaningless if the Scottish go independent.
My I.O.W home briefly and unsuccessfully called for independence many years ago, but I still (illegally) display their flag on my numberplate, which may mystify the average Gendarme... not that I consider he'd give a toss as he's writing out my fine!

Re: Check your Number Plates
If you read the directive. You don’t have to change your plates. All you have to do is display a UK sticker on the vehicle if going abroad if yore current plates are GB ones. So not much different to the requirement to display a GB sticker like we used too before Euro plates 8)
