No, there are none that meet the right BS number.

I never had an issue. Most Fererale don't know the law on stick ons.

what's the fine...£30?
who cares.
I've got a sticky one for the nose, bought at the same time as my standard rear one. Bought from local car accessory shop with seperate sticky
back numbers/letters. Only comment from shop was these are illegal on road going cars.
It's bee seen by a few coppers but in 1500 miles never had a pull
And as said before, having been pulled for an illegal plate on a bike, you get 14days to replace it and have it checked by a MOT station and take the
ticket back to the cop shop

I think the only time they are legal is on a historic/classic car of a certain age. They would be illegal on a modern car.
Mr Wippy, I must have lost at least ten seconds. And the farce is the MOT inspector is supposed to charge you but because I knew him, he didn't charge me, so all it cost was the price of a metal number plate
They're not legal BUT it's very rare for anyone to get pulled for a stick-on number plate. Obviously if the font is all wonky and the
spacing is wrong that's a different matter. Certainly the fuzz that have given my car the once over from the passenger seat of a plod highways
cruiser have never picked up on the sticky...
Historical cars have an excemption. It's not clear if there's a cut-off date. Certainly in the latest issue of Classics Monthly they just
said "yes, they're legal for classic cars"..... but I suspect the answer is more specific that that....
I ran the Falcon for years with black & white vintage plate, it’s a Y reg
No one ever said a word about them, even the mot guys, all I had to do to get them was to sign a declaration that the plates were for show use only.
About as dumb as the shops now asking for your address when buying a new TV, let me see I live…
they are illegal not because they are sticky but because the MOT book says they should be a straight plate - you can get a higher fine for altering a number plate knowingly rather than a pleading ignorant - lots of se7en owners i know seem to have problems keeping their front number plate fixed on the car - so it ends up in the car a lot - strange phenomena that! suppose they must have to fix it back on when they get back home..

"My front number plate is under the passenger seat after falling off- I was just driving home to re-attach it"
The old ones are the best 
As an aside , I saw a previous model Jag XK in Marshalls last week with a sticky . Hardly a classic !!!!
Also has anybody used one of the tiny ones favoured by the works WRC cars
