100's of them.....................I would have thought one £30 fine would be enough to deter you from doing it 
I dont know about points but if the plate is a private one they can take it off you!

The police could "seize" the plates there and then as evidence of the offence committed.
Unless you've got a spare set in your boot you'll be locking the car up and walking home
