Most exotic licence plate personally spotted on UK road

[route101]

Seen a lorry with Finnish number plates on the M74. First time seeing a lorry from Finland. Hardly see any hauliers from the Scandic countries in the UK, Denmark only.

Furthest I've ever seen was a big USA gas guzzler with a "Guam" plate. Was years ago, can't remember where.

Must have been a USA serviceman who got it ferried across

US plates are a fairly common sight near the US bases in East Anglia.

No; there's somewhere in Africa - I think it's Kenya - which uses ( and has done for many, many, years ) the same format that we used to have in the UK before they introduced the current system. It's theoretically possible that a fair few of their numbers duplicated simultaneous UK numbers at some point.

Hence the requirement for the additional “country sticker” if driving abroad (or the little blue bit on EU plates)
