A few years ago I worked with a guy who used to park his car nose in to a wall. As I parked next to him and was invariably late for work I saw his rear number plate everyday. One day he was selling the car and I was looking around it and for some reason noticed that the number on his tax disc was different. His tax disc said 601 and his rear number plate said 610. We had another look and realised that the front plate matched the tax disc but the rear one didn't. Over three years previously someone had rear ended him in traffic and a new rear plate was fitted when the car was repaired and it was wrong. He'd been through 3 MoT tests in that time and nobody have ever noticed that the plates were different.
