About this plate
THE TWO-DIGIT BUCHAREST PLATE WITH THE EU BAND, the short-lived middle state, and the one that most often confuses a naive parser, because it has the capital's one-letter code AND the counties' two-digit order number. Still very much on the road: nothing was recalled when the third digit arrived, so a current Bucharest vehicle may carry either length.
