Lighter fluid or white spirits. Needs a polish to protect the paint afterwards though. Too much intellectual firepower can damage your common sense.

Have a look for "label remover" at electrical parts shops (got mine from that national chain of them, the name of which escapes me) which is very good. Discovery 3 TDV6 5-Seat

What shape plate have you now fitted?
When I changed the rear plate on mine, I noticed that there were two blanked off holes in the rear door for screwing plates on, which would be exposed if you fitted a short single line plate (ie. for 5 digits or less). Discovery 3 TDV6 5-Seat
