About this plate
Slovenia's oldtimer plate inverts the whole design: light blue ground, white characters, white edge, and MV (muzejsko/starodobno vozilo) where the area code belongs. It is the only Slovenian series whose mark may ALSO be chosen, 40. člen (1)'s last sentence, "Ta kombinacija je lahko tudi izbirna", which is the opposite of Croatia, where čl. 22 st. 9 forbids exactly that.
