rather than a window sticker a yellow and white sticker to cover the dealers name on the plates would be good?

 

Unfortunately if you do that the plates are no longer legal believe it or not.

Here's what the DVLA rules say:

 

The British Standard sets out the physical characteristics of the number plate. This includes visibility, strength and reflectivity.

 

The British Standard also requires each number plate to be permanently and legibly marked with the following information:

 

* The British Standard number (currently BS AU 145d)

* The name, trademark or other means of identification of the manufacturer or component supplier (The company that made the plate)

* Name and postcode of the supplying outlet.

 

My plate was manufactured by bestplate, it has the dealer name and postcode on it in the middle and on the right it says bestplate BSAU145d. Does this mean i'm not allowed to cover the dealer name and postcode up?

 

 

In order for your number plate to be compliant with DVLA and VOSA regulations manufacturers have to put reference to their manufacturing RNPS number and supplying outlet name and postcode on the bottom of your number plate. This law applies wherever you purchase your road legal number plate from. This will only be removed if you buy a sign (show plate) for off road use only. This is a legal requirement not a recommendation.

 

If your plate doesn't have this info on them, then they have been supplied by someone who shouldn't be making them, if you buy from registered dealers they will always ask for proof that you own the car for the Reg No. you are asking for, this prevents cloning and other dodgy dealings using plates that don't belong to the driver.

In your case it shouldn't be a problem as you have the info on them but you may have to remove any stickers that cover this info up if asked to do so but wouldn't think this will happen too often
