I think you might be a bit behind the times, Sid.
Having taken the information
(*Logo pending HM The Queen approval) from the most credible source available, NPAS's own webpage this very afternoon..... sorry, who's behind the times? :ooh:
Nice of you to criticise my post though, without giving us any verification on what you're saying.
I wouldn't like to think another one of these mistakes was being made;

Unless of course you mean that foreign plates can now
be used in the UK indefinately, however I don't think so!...
Visitors coming to the UK that don’t intend living here can usually use a vehicle displaying foreign (non-UK) number plates for up to six months in a 12 month period. This can be one single or several shorter visits, adding up to a six month period. During this time the vehicle can travel displaying the non-UK plates but only provided the vehicle is still fully registered and tax paid, in the country it came from (the driver’s home country).
For anyone wishing to stay in the UK for longer than a six month period, their vehicle will normally need to be registered and taxed at Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA).
