Presumably he wrote to DVLA saying he couldn't fit a plate and they responded with exception.
He could quite easily fit one and the BiB would read that excemption letter see there is space and fine him suitably. As they should.
Now if he'd sent pictures of the car and DVLA agreed it didn't need a plate, then that's another story..... but I doubt he did.
Personally it's not worth the hassle of getting stopped regularly.
