This might be a strange observation but why would you have a baja on a number plate that is the Manx club. Seems pretty obvious what should be on there.
Wha tabout a baja bus picture?
You see we are a Buggy and baja club. Manx Australia sold Manx baja Kits so we let them in. I would not want a baja on my buggy so do not expect a baja guy to want a buggy on there baja.

Meyers Manx AustraliaSurely each different picture is going to attract the $300 artwork fee for the plates....
I think we need to pick one design and stick to it

They do but it woudl not be fair to not offer the baja owners the same opportunity as teh buggy guys.
The club decided that is we had 5 buggy guys who wanted plates then we woudl get them. Well they have the same rules for teh baja plates. So far:
Buggy Plates:
1- Brad
2- Graham
3- Dyno
4- Rick
5- Kenny
6 - Rod
Plus a few possibles.
Baja Plates:
1- Wes
2- Terry
3- Darren
So they aren't there yet

Soon you will have cool plates !
I am almost envious, Nah like mine better.
Now would I do a thing like that ? Not for the last few weeks anyway and surely your not that slow 😀:P
I dunno about cooler, My mum stopped writting names on things to help me know what they were when I was about 2. Now you have gone and spent a heap of $$$ on an easy way to remember you one a MANX 😀😀
I don't need reminding

Meyers Manx Australiaok, the two plates shown on this page, will be very similar to what we will be getting. However I am yet to decide on the exact Baja graphic as I quickly coloured a B&W graphic to make that one.
I am quite sure we will be getting Baja plates, cos I am silly and I'd be happy to pay a bit extra to offset any costs to the club. I just need to find a balance between how many I think we'd sell, then split it up to an additional fee per plate that I would have to charge club members to get them. So essentially the cost of getting the plates will be paid for by the people who buy them, not members in other states etc.

Meyers Manx AustraliaEven though you boys wont let me play because I'm not in QLD, I like the final versions anyway.
What would be the final cost of these plates as a matter of interest? And is it possiable to get a plate anyway even if I cant use it?
I think you guys have found the best looking plate, will have to go get myself a manx just so i can have a plate.
I don't see "The Smart State" on the plate anywhere 😀
I like the little pictures down the bottom, it makes the plates look like a pair
I did prefer the first Baja I posted though, we'll see what artwork we can find in a decent resolution.

So do we have to be manx club members to be able to get the Plates🙂 Guess I will have to join just to make it all legit. 😀
I was just wondering what plate type these will be. Eg 3 letters 2 numbers etc.
Oh and will they still have the 2 little pics in the corners as they make them look really COOL😀
We are still debaiting the little pictures.
The plates will be either 2 letter 3 numbers or 2 numbers and 3 letters.
Yes you will need to be in the club, so you shoudl join 😀

Meyers Manx AustraliaHonest I tried to look into that on the site tonight but where it says click here does not exist. :alien

Brad

Meyers Manx Australiadefinately keep the little pics in the corners, looks great and promotes that the club is for buggies and baja's (or baha depending if your point of view on that one!)
maybe I should be quiet cause you'll make me finally pull my finger out and join the club too!!

Meyers Manx AustraliaI have created a monster! your right, site is fixed, and yes we printed some forms out! so yes to keeping the cool little pics?
also any indication on price??
The baja plates are fine but don`t you think the two little pics just brings the 2 types of cars a little closer together:thumb
You guys are making me really pissed that I don't live in QLD.
I WANT PLATES TOO!!!
:cry
There is some division about the little pics.
I see both sides.
I agree they start to make things a little cluttered, and sometimes simple is best.
But I also think they make the plates look paired, and really show the baja's and buggies point.
in the end I like the little pics.
Brad, I think we need a vote on this one!
PS - I am still not quite happy with the yellow baja pic, I like the blue one better, more stylish. But we will have to take what we can get in the end I suppose.

Yep I have them also some of our members up north have ordered them and they will be on their cars soon.
They are vcery cool and part from being pulled over by a Cop who thought I had made my own plates up all is well.
He had a good chuckle when he found out we had actually registered the desigbn and it was all legal and stuff :thumb
Hi thought it was cool that I had a little buggy on my buggy number plates... 😀
I though it was cool that he thought it was cool and didn't go looking at my very roadworthy buggy 😎
