Yes some are. As long as they are of UK font, have a BS number, and the makers postcode.

Yeah, as Adam says.

Ive had plates from this chap on my car for over 2 years and never had any issues with old bill.

If your thinking of getting some it might be worth trying to set up a group buy so anyone who wants some can get some and save a bit of money at the same time. That's how I got mine and I'm sure plenty others got theirs in various group buys in the past too.
