I had these on my car for about 4 months, no probs at all, had police following me loadsa times and they never bothered with me at all.
Then i got pulled 3 times in 3 days (eachtime for the number plates alone, not dodgy driving or n e thing) so i decided to call it a day, got standard ones back on now

Loads of illegal plates around here including those you mention, but I got pulled and all he could find was my rear number plates digits were 2mm too narrow!!
Yes he actually had a 6" steel rule in his pocket notebook, bike cop, still have not changed them though, loads of the usual illegal spacings etc, and a few black white.

Too many posts.. I need a life!!
In theory your car has to be old enough to have had them when new. I think that is pre-1970ish. The Police, DVLA etc are so anal people have problems when fitting them to 1930s vehicles!!

Never got pulled with them on i think the private plate helped ( they couldn't tell the age of the car.)

cops dont seem to mind much, as long as you can easily read them and the car looks clean...
