Number Plate Rant! The Rta Has Changed The Rules.

[Beer Baron]

I was just looking to order a set of plates, and i want the black lettering on white plates to match my other plates. BUT since the new pink, purple whatever colours have been brought in they have scrapped the nice simple black on white and you can't now order in that style the closest thing is white with a black border, but it's not the same dammit! here endeth my rant.

WTF.. I can't believe they've done that.. as if there aren't enough people out there that have them.. especially imports for some reason .. **chuckle** they definately suit the cars the best, simple - but very smooth..

what a joke.. typical of them to do it..

[Beer Baron]

yeah it's pretty lame. especially as i already have two cars with that style of plate and i wanted any future cars to have the same. damn. i will have to go with the white with black border and a pair of tin snips...

[NXTIME]

[Abo Bob]

I've ordered my black on white plates (3 or 4 weeks ago). I am sure that they don't have the border on them. But who knows, it is a govt department, heh!

[br3tt]

This has been into play for a while now unfortunately.

Why do NSW charge yearly fees on plates? :<

It sucks so much

[d00dz]

Coz NSW RTA wants more money to "fix" *caugh* not *caugh* roads.

Lucky I got my Black on white plates for my black car

[Marsss]

ye these pr*cks will start charging admission to go get yr rego soon

[monkeykplunk]

If you ring or go into the RTA rather then going online, they will make them for you.

You may notice that you still can't order the newer "AB 12 CD" style over then net either. But I know for a fact, as I ordered them for my wife's car, you can get them by ringing or going to an RTA.

[Beer Baron]

monkey plunk, you are a legend mate. love it. i will ring up

I don't care about the cost i just wanted my plates to all match.

[R32_GTS-4]

just thought id let u know monkeykplunk, i ordered my plates online, my plates are RB 20 ED?? so i dont understand what your saying when u say u can order that type online? i got mine back in march...

[hanyou]

haha oh i cant wait to get my plates white on red. RB - 1337 for all those counter strike players out there

[br3tt]

Hehehe.

I wanted BR 33 TT but it was taken ;<

If you go into the RTA are they made and given to you on the spot?

[Beer Baron]

lol, made on the spot... no mate, there is no black smith out the back making plates. they are made in a factory. you'll have to wait about 4 weeks.

[br3tt]

I could of worded it a bit better and not make myself look stupid, but ah well.

Thanks for your help and goodluck with your plates

[Beer Baron]

no worries, it just conjured up a great mental picture for me.

you walk into the RTA, line up, go to the counter, say: "i'd like a plates that says 'breasts' please" the lady says "ok" please wait five minutes. she runs out the back to the smithy who starts work on a nice set of plates. 5 minutes later your on your way with a set of smoking plates in hand!

[Beer Baron]

well i just rang the RTA to order the new plates. they wouldn't sell me the plain black on white plates, only the black on white with black border. She claimed that they look the same appart from the border, so we'll see. what a bummer. oh well, they will still be ok.
