Is it legal to get a D on your plate even if your car isn't registered in Germany?

Makes no difference, if they are not the correct font and do not have a suppliers name on them they will fine you, never worth the hassle.

pressed plates on mine with the d,
never had any problems with the plod and they are funny in my area with people who have custom plates but mines spaced correct,
only take them off for the mot
 as they are illegal and not mot friendly.

but they stay on there at all times
