They relaxed the 'flag' laws a couple of years ago - you can now have national flags, and (I think) even localised flags, such as Kernow.

''On 28 December 2001, the Government announced the intention to permit the display of national flags and national identifiers on vehicle number plates. The Road Vehicles (Display of Registration Marks) Regulations 2001 are in the process of being amended. They will provide for the voluntary display of the Union flag, Scottish Saltire, Cross of St George and Red Dragon. Football team crests etc. are not allowed.''

National flags and identifiersMotorists in England, Scotland and Wales have the option to display the Union Flag, Cross of St George, Cross of St Andrew (also known as the Saltire) or Red Dragon of Wales together with one of the following identifiers: GREAT BRITAIN, Great Britain, GB, UNITED KINGDOM, United Kingdom, UK, CYMRU, Cymru, CYM, Cym, ENGLAND, England, ENG, Eng, SCOTLAND, Scotland, SCO, Sco, WALES or Wales. This must be displayed on the left hand side of the number plate. No other symbols or flags can be displayed on number plates.The flag must be positioned above the identifier and neither must be more than 50 millimetres wide or on the number plate margin.Motorists displaying national flags and identifiers will still be required to display the standard GB sticker when travelling in Europe.
Depending on the year of manufacture, the law varies but as all mk5's are post 2001 all number plates must be retro reflective. Correct me if I'm wrong but aren't the pressed plates a flat, non-reflective surface and therefore illegal?
