a US guy in our club had one, he works at RAF Croughton the listening station close to Silverstone thats hooked up to all the US embassy's
no road fund licence, no MOT, can park where he wants even on double reds in London, no speeding or driving fines, etc
though he said if he took the micky the plates could be taken off him

Can a policeman stop a car with diplomatic plates? Or are they immune?
They can and are stopped.The car isn't immune.
The driver 'might' be.
