    set 1 - font is not legal
    set 4 - no background images (as sean said).
    
    and out of the two you have recently posted, i would go for the second one but with the logo from the first one.

    Look good, but actually ALL of the designs you posted are not legal for use on the road...
    
    DVLA changed their rules on number plates about 18 months ago and officially you are only allowed to use the ONE font they specify as legal.
    
    No text is allowed underneath the plate and only National or EU symbols are allowed on the left hand side.
    
    All depends on how fussy the police are in your area mind...
