90s style numberplates?

[mk4vf2011]

Hi there does anyone know where i can get some number plates made in the 90s style font?

I want to know this too. The text used to be slightly skinnier and more angular. Yes, I do know that running these plates would not technically be legal.

http://www.a1showplates.com/ could be worth a try?

The font you're after is called Serck.

Not that you'd ever find anyone pedantic enough to care. I'm sure they are legal on cars which would have originally worn the pre-Charles Wright script plates. As in, you could get a set made up to display on your car without issue if the car would have been first registered wearing 90's plates, just the same as some classics wearing black and white plates.

Why would it not be legal? Many cars from the 90s with original plates still exist? My 1983 cherry's got its originals still on it.

I believe I read that cars of the period are allowed to wear their original plates but any replacement plates must conform to the new standard... As has been said already, unlikely to run into a copper pedantic enough to notice / care but I thought I'd mention it before this thread got shat upon by the "ROFL STYLISED NUMBERPLATES ARE FOR SHOW PURPOSES ONLY" brigade.

I guess if you do get pulled you're going to have a hard time convincing anyone that your shiny new numberplates are 15+ years old

The quality of those old 90s style plates always seemed highly suspect.

Yes the car i was them for is a 1997 R reg

Big bump here, but anyone know a good source for recreating early 90's style plates?

I used Tippers https://www.tippersvintageplates.co.uk/phdi/p1.nsf... for raised letter type plates in white and yellow. They say these were until 1991? They also say they have remnant stock of other styles so may be worth an email?

Yep, that'll do nicely. Thanks.
