Are exempt from displaying a tax disc? I worked on a car this week that wasnt. (it never does) it had a special 7 digit reg, and the plates were embossed by the dvla.
Just for my own curiosity really lol :thumb:

From the DVLA


Are any types of vehicle exempt from displaying a tax disc?
The following vehicles are exempt from displaying tax discs:

Fire engines;
ambulances;
some agricultural vehicles;
some electrically propelled vehicles;
invalid carriages;
road construction vehicles; and
vehicles used solely for spreading material to deal with frost, ice and snow.

It's none of the above rich. In the place of the tax disc is a parking permit for Westminster

certain govt depts have exemption, the prison service used to, then royal household vehicles will be exempt, also i've seen some funky looking plates on development vehicles, when parking my wagon at our yard @MIRA, & also in preproduction triumph bikes.
