It does not really fit the type of things most of us do.

An antique passenger or motorcycle plate is available for vehicles or motorcycles that are 25 years old or more and will be only used in the following ways:

as a collector's item in exhibitions
in club activities

in parades

as transportation to and from these events

as transportation to servicing appointments

When I read the purpose of the plate from the Government site, I thought, 'this just makes my vehicle useless.'

Im not sure how other people are interpreting the law on this, but it seems clear enough: you'd be better to sell the bloody thing and forget it.
I cannot understand why they don't have an occassionaly pleasure use clause.
