I remember trying to find out what happens with Q plates with vrt a few years ago when i was trying to buy a pug 205 MI16 that was a bit of a frankenstine of car parts and they were gonna just reg it as a 3 year old reg plate over here and was fairly cheap to vrt too..... I'd imagine thats all changed now but if not we gonna have a Domino in the club with a 06-KY plate....
I'm heading to Tralee for a weeks hols next week so i'll spin past him house and see....
