You have to have a certain ammount of background around the edges of the letters. You don't have enough. Have fun getting pulled over

11mm round each letter I *THINK*
Search on the web for Road Vehicles Construction and Use Regulations 1986 (and any of the many updates since) that should tell you.

yes but i wanted to know what arse bandit answers i would get from a few tw@ts on the forums  apparently your allowed 13mm around the edge of the numbers/letters so i JUST am legal
p.s the pic i took wasnt with the plate on properly... its held up by something so it is more visable by a few MM then you can see.

Get a plate made with legal spacing and typeface, but with slightly smaller letters.
I think 3.5" is standard, so try 3". If everything else looks fine they'll hopefully not realise it's a bit smaller.
