If you are one of those who illegally formats it to suit them, or uses an
illegal font, it will cost you a £1000 fine everytime I (or someone like me)
sees you.

Oh, I don't know. Seems reasonable to me to penalise people who make
their numberplates deliberately appear to read something other than what
it's supposed to be.

Perhaps true, but the OP didn't ask about the snags, he asked if there
was any costs involved once you have bought a plate. From which I
assume he meant transfer/application costs etc.

Bob jumps to the conclusion that John is going to illegally play with
the number/letter format/spacing. Very naughty as we all know.

Good job we all don't jump to conclusions else we may wonder if Bob
has the right to use bob@bob.com as his "From" address in usernet
postings. I assume he has else it could be a breach of his ISP's T&C.

Good point, I hope the owner of withthanks.com doesn't come after me :-)

Purely by chance I know the bloke who has www.bobs.co.uk - but not bob.com.

Thank you Graham. I simply asked about the other costs involved once you buy a
private plate. I don't think Bob understood my question. I have no interest
whatsoever in deliberately changing the way the letters appear on the plate.

I was after "J12 YES."

Don't think I could re-arrange the lettering on it anyway, even if wanted to.

£250 quid plus £80 DVLA handling charges. Decided not to buy.

If you buy that direct from the DVLA, it is £250 including vat and all fees.

I didn't jump to a conclusion, I said "if you are one of" them. His answer
confirmed he is.

Sorry if I upset you, but I did put an "if" in my post.

Actually, M12 is commonly disfigured into "MR". And don't think people
don't add stuff to the plate either. I have seen half height letters added,
making "MBZ 123 A" into "MBenZ 123 A".
