I asked this directly to the DVLA and was told "technically it's 
illegal, but common sense explains why you were/are doing it - just 
don't take the piss"

(well, I paraphrased the last bit)

I drove my car for approx 500 miles on "BWCC 2" on a long expired 
Virginia plate, and this included going to the office party where I was 
tailed by plod for a while.

The best example is Rich J who drove his to work (only the Police wing 
of the Home Office) on a US plate..... and for a year afterwards!
