hi folks I know there are a few people on here that collect licence plates from around the world - I was following a pickup on a trailer last night which had an unusual foreign number plate, which looked vaguely familiar but I can't think where from. The plate was uk standard shape, but with a dark green background and silver numbers (there were only four numbers on the plate - the pickup was fairly new. It didn't have any other letters or numbers just what looked like a map of the world on the left hand side. Sorry I couldn't take a picture - it was dark! While looking on the net I found this site www.worldlicenseplates.com/ which has pictures of licence plates from all over the world but you can't search by the style/colour of plate! Anyone got any ideas where it was from? cheers Cortinaman |

Most logical, Japanese commercial plates are green |

davey Madrid looks the closest so far - but it only had four numbers closely spaced with no dashes (like Guernsey plates). There did seem to be some dealer or plate maker text at the bottom of the plate but it was too small to read other than to discern it was in a Roman script (i.e. not Chinese or Japanese characters)

 I would have thought it unlikely to have been an image of the world, but you said it was dark and the brain tries its best to interpret what the eyes see and doesn't always get it right :-) |

Bit of a bump but I think it’s probs just a fake plate, some folks who like to think vehicle registration laws don’t apply to them make up these Citizen Of The World plates. It’s quite childish really. Here’s an example, it’s dark green and has the globe as per the original description but this individual is proclaiming themselves to be a fan of Lynyrd Skynyrd.

@autoverse I think you might have cracked it! Apart from the colour, that is pretty much the style of plate (the map of the world is the same).
