Prompted by the Hong Kong car Pron thread. I didn't relise that they still used British style plates there. White front, yellow back, black letters.

So, that's Hong Kong and Cyprus and Gibraltar. Anywhere else?

Falkland Islands, Bermuda, I think St Helena and Ascension Island do too. Also closer to home crown dependencies such as Jersey, Guernsey and Isle of Man. The Isle of Man changed theirs to hyphens between the groups of numbers/letters with an Irish style font but have since changed back to UK style.

Jersey may use the same style but Guernsey use Black plates with silver (I seem to recall) numbering only.

Though think they are same size/font as UK plates, probably similar to our old black plates.

Haven't Cyprus now changed to the black-on-white "Euro" style plates? Thought they had but might be thinking of somewhere else.

The Dutch still use black on yellow, front and rear which, from the rear at least, are near identical to ours
