dont think you can get points enless its persistant offences maybe!
but the police can right to the DVLA and get your plate taken off you if its a private plate that is!
and yeh £30 fine usually but think it can go up if its persistant and same copper etc, think trotty got an £80 one once!

Well a dark grey TT has black plates and blatently drives around the MK Cruise in front of the police with them on. Has done for the past 2/3 weeks. Must be doing well not to get pulled.

He's probably not been pulled because the police don't know the law so they won't bother doing anything. If you get someone who knows they're illegal on cars registered on or after 1st March 1973, it might be a different matter.

black number plates come as standard on any car registered on the isle of mann .. so if you're hell bent on getting them buy a car from over there and get the ferry back with it

No they don't. Its Guernsey. All the IOM cars i've seen have white and yellow plates, with a three legged thingy on it.
