All I'm saying is that I'll need to remember to put proper plate back on for MOT to save failure and additional cost/hassle on the day.

The MOT is effectivley invalid the moment you ride away from the test centre anyway.
Indeed, but you still need to get through at that moment.

in my friends example he had the plates supplied when he bought the car secondhand. he didn't relaise that the plate wouldn't get through the MOT as it all other aspects the plate looked legal and was sold through a car dealer that way. Nothing mysterious just heard about it and thought I'd let others know. tis all.
