Strange vehicle number plate
 

Spotted by me in London. Someone at the garage outside which it was parked said 'one of the Scandinavian countries' but according to google - no.

Any ideas where this is from?

Left or right hand drive?

It looks like one of the very cheap UK private plates done with odd spacing

Def LHD, and I looked at the windscreen to see if any tell-tale tax discs / dealer stickers etc but none.

Not UK format as that wouldn't have 3 letters/space/3 digits/space/1 digit

Is there another plate under?
When i look to the way of writing on the plate I would guess the plate is made in the Netherlands. The absence of any sticker or sign may indicate it is a unofficial plate. Did you check the plate on the back of the car?
In a world full of criminals everything is possible. Many years ago I saw a car with German numberplate on the front and a Belgium plate on the back.

Don't think there was another plate underneath this one but yes, can def confirm that the one at the back was identical - I walked round the back of the vehicle wondering if there WOULD be any country code or dealer sticker etc.

3 letters/4 numbers is a UK format that you can get on the cheapest private plates, and some people like to do odd things with spacing on them for whatever personal reason, but I had a quick look on DVLA and yes it's not a UK number

ABC 1234 format could be a Northern Irish plate. The font is wrong though.

Designed to be more random than a GB plate so they had to bribe someone to get info about sectarian ******s for their medieval stupidity.

Font and LHD makes me think Bulgarian. It's London though, so probably just some gangster taking the **** out of Komrade Khans many charges and taxes.

The font looks like that used in Baltic countries and the format looks like Estonia to me.

Neither the font, nor the format are Bulgarian. In BG on cars it's predominantly 2 letters/ 4 digits / 2 letters.

Not even remotely. Format is closer to Lithuania/Sweden, but they have three digits, not four. Estonia is three digits followed by three letters. Latvia is two letters followed by a dash and up to four digits with no leading zeroes.

Font is a bit similar to Finland but larger characters, and the Finnish format is three digits, not four.

Hi all - thanks for giving this some serious consideration!

Could be a dateless Northern Ireland plate, though maybe not with the LHD

This one is getting close.
Found it on the swedish site garaget.org
