I was running the car for about 6 months without a plate on the front at all with no problems, but then the government obviously were short of a bit of cash and pulled me over twice in a matter of weeks, so the plate went back on.
Did you end up with any £30 fines or just verbally warned?

One £30 fine and one warning, they said Surrey police are having a clamp down on illegal number plates, which sounds like a fantastic use of police time and money...
As per previous posts, due to a quirk in the law, £30 + no points is the maximum fine for no number plate. It's an old law which has thankfully not been updated.
More recent is the illegal number plates law which is up to £1,000 + 3(?) points.
So they can give you as many warnings as they like about illegal number plates but that has got nothing to do with you if you do not have one atall. It's £30 for each offence, period. Don't be puy off by their warnings, they are trying to frighten you with a law which does not apply to you. They know that but they are not going to tell you.

Does that quirk apply to both front and rear plates? What if your drove with no plates at all? Can you refer me to the relevant legislation?
