Its perfectly legal, and will stay the same for years.

The guy with the stuck on plates should screw them on, stick ons fall off so easily, and can be nicked to clone the car. Had a few done recently, and its no end of hassle sorting it with the police
Spooken to Jepsons (plate manufacturers) in Sheffield and faulty drilling is the reason (they say)
Both mine have been replaced at the garage I bought the car from who said "you cannot have them stuck on as they fit on a plinth!
So how do those with stuck on plates manage it?
Both my new plates look 100% AT THE MOMENT......and both screwed on.
