Looks like it's from somewhere that is going green.

It needs to go back to whoever wrapped it. Look at the colour match on the drivers/rear door. They must have been using roll ends from different batches.

Arabic plate displayed / formatted incorrectly on the front plate by the looks of it?

Edit - based on the next reply have looked at the pic in larger format and it is indeed the format displayed for Russia based on the last 3 digits - especially as RUS is printed under them (bit stupid to have missed that getmecoatlaugh ) Probably also explains the change to a less obvious plate identifier / format too.

Google search of the plate B990TB750 brings up a couple of images that have been cached from when it's been spotted driving around Central London.




Edit 2 - fixed the img tags

That plate format looks more like Russia than anywhere in the middle east to me.

Yup. Russia.

The 750 at the end of the plate is Moscow Oblast.

Well yes, it does have an “RUS” mark on it.

That may explain why they have had a new plate made which does not so clearly indicate the nationality.

Plenty of Russians disagree with what their home country is doing.

The driver can park between the lines at least.

Half the natives have trouble with that.
