What kind of reg plate is this?
Saw a right hand drive BMW with a reg plate "23696969 or 20696969" on the M25 the other day, black plate with white letters! Thought it
might be foreign at first but the rhd threw me on that one.....is it some kind of trade plate? I thought all reg plates had a mix of numbers and
letters?
I'm sure someone here will cure my sleepless nights over this lol

Black plate with white letters is Gurnsey registered - only Numbers though, no letters.

Thats a good point, I've never seen one longer than 5 or 6 characters.

I once had to go to the Chinese embassy in Edinburgh for a visa and saw a couple of black BMW's with similar plates. Cant remember the exact
format. I wonder if it was a diplomatic vehicle.

Quite often see these in oxford white on black with about 5 numbers.
Someone told me they are diplomatic plates, another told me they were from the channel islands.

Channel islands plates are:
Jxxxxxx for Jersey
AYxxxxx for Alderney
xxxxxx for Guernsey
None have more than 6 digits - they're only small islands! Guernsey are allowed black/silver plates although most cars use normal
yellow/white/black ones.
Diplomtic car sounds likely.
