it's amazing how much the state road authority's are now ripping people off,
I've owned all of the following cheap plates:
Vic VW-0066 on my 1st Bug in the '80's ..cost about $60 one-off payment.
Vic AH-1996 on my A' Healey, again for same sort of $ (1964 was gone, and '96 was the year it was re-born)
NSW X-BO4-T std. issue Euro plate on an Benz wagon.
NSW KGB-444 on my old Benz, which everyone called the 'staff car'...these replaced the orig. VIC B&W set which I sold for about $400 after the police kept hasling me to change to NSW rego...
NSW PUG-089 in red on my red 205 GTi Peugeot
and std Vic current set QQQ-555 now in old-skool Black and White...
none of them have ever been my initials, esp. when mine are MB, and I've owned 3 Benzes and not one transfer, re-issue or new set has cost me more than $100....and I refuse to pay any annual fees..'spose I've just been lucky !!
