Min sized Legal Square Number Plate
I'm looking for the smallest "legal" sized square number plate. 4 letters across 1st row, 3 on 2nd row, all full width.
My calculations is 255mm [2x 11mm (border) + 4x 50 (Letters) + 3x 11 (Gaps)] by 199mm [2x 11mm (Borders) + 2x 79mm (letters)+ 1x 19mm?
(line space) ]

standard legal size is 279 x 203 or 11 x 9
I think a standard bike plate at 228 x 177 or 9 x 7 would probably go unnoticed

A pint for the gent and a white wine/fruit based drink for the lady. Those are the rules

I think your maths are right, 255x199 to the letter of the law, but a bike size plate, as mentioned seems to go un noticed on all manner of imports so
you should be fine there

I guess you could always trim a 279 x 203 down a little on width.

As far as I understand it, providing there is 11mm reflective around the figures that is legal.
I hope so anyway coz I've cut my plate down to that ...

Is it a rear plate?
You can only get rear numberplates for motorbikes 
yours, Pete
I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

Bikes and imports can use a 64mm font, hence the smaller overall plate size.
