"Hi Roland,
Ich hoffe dass Sie Englisch verstehen, weil mein Deutsch nicht sehr gut ist. I think the conclusion reached on the forum is correct. I have never seen such a plate in Norway. It must be a trade plate (årsprøvekjennemerke = Jahresprüfkennzeichen) remade in German lettering style and with the addition of two dates and a coat-of-arms sticker. I've looked up PY 90 in the Norwegian registration protocol and it belongs to a car dealer in Lyngdal, which is near Mandal. The registration was issued 17. July 1995 and has probably been renewed every year since. But why is it made in this style? One alternative is of course that the original plates have been lost or stolen. But then it would be no big problem to have new ones made in Norway. There would certainly not be any need to use replacement plates until September, when the plate "expires". As far as I know, Norwegian trade plates are not valid in Germany. I am not quite sure, but I think they are only valid in the Nordic countries (S, DK, FIN, IS, FO). Similarly, German plates with the yellow date band are not valid in Norway. When cars are imported with such plates, they must put on Norwegian trade or provisional plates at the border or harbour. It might be that this car dealer regularly imports cars from Germany, but finds it expensive to use regular German export plates. He then makes the unofficial plates PY 90, and uses them instead. Adding the dates and the coat-of-arms to fool the German police. I don't think he uses these plates in Norway, where the Customs would start asking questions right away. On the forum, someone called ihmotep wonders why a dealer needs a year registration. Norwegian trade plates are like your German 06-plates, as far as I know. They are registered to the car dealer and used on any car that his customers try. The official name is "årsprøvekjennemerke", and they are valid for a year at a time. But there is no date on the plates. Furthermore ihmotep mentions trade plates with the text FOR TILHENGER. That means "für Anhänger". Such plates are only valid for trailers, they probably have cheaper insurance. Only a few large trailer and caravan dealers have such plates. Since the new lettering style was introduced the text no longer appears, but there is a T added to the plate. For example SN 10 T would be a trailer trade plate from Bergen. These are so rare I haven't seen any myself, yet. But I have received reports that they have been spotted.

Anfrage an Lars: War es ein Anhänger oder ein großer Caravan ?
Das Nummernschild scheint ja doch äußerst (!!!) selten zu sein...
Ha det bra
