Private plates... Oblivious to the rules?

There's a number if car specific plates advertised out there and it amazes me that some sellers don't seem to know the rules. Take one on eBay at the minute for T944*** advertised as suitable for a 944 Turbo....

Even though it's starting at only £200 surely a "T" plate from 1999 simply can't go on a 944 Turbo from 10 years earlier? What are some people thinking?

The rules are quite clear in that you cannot make a car appear newer than it is. So for a car that went out of production in 1992 a J plate is the last plate that could go on a 944.
