My classic Alfa Spider, like many others, wears a small front numberplate.

I believe it's the same size as a bike rear plate. Legal in every respect except size (so illegal).

Thankfully, both MOT & Police have been pragmatic about it & I've never been warned, asked or instructed to put the pre-drilled full sized plate on by them.

The lack of a hyphen after the colon is also poor
Incorrect:

"The colon (:) seems to bewilder many people, though it's really rather easy to use correctly, since it has only one major use. But first please note the following: the colon is never preceded by a white space; it is always followed by a single white space in normal use, and it is never, never, never followed by a hyphen or a dash — in spite of what you might have been taught in school. One of the commonest most common of all punctuation mistakes is following a colon with a completely pointless hyphen."

Corrected that for you.
