Congrats mate!  :drink:
Ya know, I'm still struggling to spot a plate from a Balkan country that I don't have yet (Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro, North Macedonia). Well, either from there or from another country, in fact  :D
I remember that I was in Madrid back in August 2020, nearby the Kio Towers and the CTBA (Spanish acronym for Cuatro Torres Business Area). There I have seen a Belarus plate, and missed it! I still feel sad for missing that plate  :(

Thanks!! I'm sure you'll spot those Balkan country plates!! It seems like a lot of people have started traveling more these days!  :D I feel bad for you that you missed that Belarus plate too.  :( Isn't it so annoying when you see a plate you really need to spot pass you by? It happens to me sometimes, and I feel sad that I couldn't spot them  :(

This has always been interesting to me. In a state/province which has only a rear license plate, how can you get away with displaying a Canadian plate on the front in the USA, and vice-versa in Canada? I've even seen some cases where a plate from a different state is displayed on the front of a US car. Surely it's not only confusing but also illegal?

Apparently, it's allowed, because I see it a lot. There's a Prius around here with 7UNL064 on the front, but a UJS plate on the back. I really don't know how it works. I really would like to know. Now I'm so curious lol.

Hmm, so I guess since front plates aren't required anything goes. I'd think any law saying you can't display license plates not belonging to your vehicle would apply, but I guess it depends on the state's interpretation.

That's right! Sometimes, they actually belong to the vehicle, like 7UNL064. It actually comes back to the Prius it's on. Sometimes, I've seen souvenir plates, and they're even still there today.

Type in "mycarfax.com", then type in your plate number in the given space after you make an account. Only works if you make an account. You can also use licenseplatedata.com, which doesn't require you to make an account. That plate you mentioned was on a 1986 Nissan Maxima!  :D

Same goes in Alberta, I've seen plenty of cars with California plates on the front and even Montana, which we share a border with. Not as many Canada-Canada instances, but they do exist.

I used to see a Pickup truck with an old SC plate up front, and the new one at the back. I currently know of this car:


It went from 7YUL847 to UXK 627. It still has 7YUL847 on the front, and it should be rather easy to spot it again, as it's local to me.

It had Canadian plates when I looked it up, Carfax doesn't do too well with decoding Canadian cars sometimes. Regardless, I don't know why any of this matters since I still got the model correct + this thread is years old?
