OK - i will start off with the fact i have the poops
But besides that i cant beieve what people pay and get in numberplates
Saw one today that said "THANXS"
FOR WHAT???
Cause some one bought you a car??
I guess it is better than the one i saw years ago down Nowra way
A petite young mum had a new car that said "TA DAD"
Should have said " I AM A SPOILT TWAT"
Whatever - think i will go down to the local child care centre and slap some one

That has a point
I can accept that
A "buisness lady" a friend of mine knew had "FIGJAM" - again, advertising
It is the "MARK" or "STEVE" that i just dont get
Have these people forgotten their names??
And as stated the spoilt brat plates just get me
djnee ·
Must admit i'm not into personalised number plates at all. Some are ok, but generally most of them are very gaelic. Quite why anyone would want everyone to know their name and what they drive is beyond me. Exactly who cares!?
With that said, at least it's better here in Aus than in the UK as the cost seems quite reasonable. Some examples of UK ones include:
M444TFF (meant to say MATT F)
J10DIE (meant to say JODY)
Even worse in the UK are people using the screw that holds the plate on to make part of a letter (an example is someone painting the number plate screw black and putting it in the middle of the letter C to make it look like an E)
All of the above are very

I have seen some pretty funny ones:
RU16QT (are you 16 cutie?)
XE55VE (excessive and it is on my mates liberty that competes in dB drags)

SXYRXY (sexy rexy on a WRX around the corner from where a live)
the list goes on for so long. Sydney is full of that stuff lol

haha,
I been contimplating for teh baja... but i'm most likely too much of a tight arse for a cheesy number plate :P
The worst are the so boring plain run of the mill initials and birthyear....
Yea... lets all spend a handfull on that crap. PHH! Definitely doesn't make a statement.

Many of those people have an odd number plate because they cannot remember things like ABC 45J etc... lol IMHO..
its just a custom thing....
I know many people have their initials etc...
and its a personal thing... that I haven;t gotten into...
it doesn't make any difference to Me...
Like in Scone We See DUBAI 1 DUBAI 2 DUBAI 3 etc..
from Emirates park - {United Arab Emirates]
also 189, 85 , 2 & 3 numbers which are worth heaps for the plates.
Me; I take what they give Me.... lol

Sorry, but I have had my KC-**** number plates for 21 years that my parents bought for my 21st. But I too also think that some of them are wankers. eg IM2SEXC. And I can tell you, she wasn't 🙅
I did see about 15-20 years ago on a big 4 wheel drive that I was behind - TIVOOM. I thought, WTF does that mean? When I got past him and looked back in my rear view mirror, I worked it out. Say it backwards.
That my 2c worth, Kev

My number plates on the bugy are BUG33Y, they were on it when I bought it and I like em, I new a fella in Newie who had those FIGJAM number plates about 10 years back, he was a sales person for a well known home builder, had them on a Fairmont last time I saw him, I thought they were kinda good but can imagine them upsetting some of the puritans and maybe, just maybe, loosing him a sale, yeah some are kinda good others just "why?"

you know the minute your in qld, every 2nd car has a wanker number plate
i got a good laugh when the chaser put on tv exactly what we were all thinking

I agree, there are acceptable personalised plates and then there are the stupid wanker number plates. Such as sxyrxy, totally agree with you colonel on that one.

Hi Camo
My plates are on Davids car until I need them, better than paying a storage fee the the Road Trauma Association.
I got mine for my 21st as well, that was a long time ago, in Beetle years I'm an Oval with heart shapes.
Personal plates are real ripoff in NSW, the fees are horrendous so I feel sorry for the suckers paying the fees.

Actually the old saying goes "More dollars than sense" though very few people say it properly these days. It's supposed to be a play on words, ie dollars and cents.
Sorry, I couldn't help myself.
donn ·
My mum and dad usesd to lay this one on me when i was a little bloke, you must have more money than sence they would say, thing is that we were dealing in pounds shillings and pence back then, so that seems to blow the "play on words" theory out the window.
Sorry, couldn't help myself.😂😍

i think the origional saying was "more money that common sense" i remember hearing that when i was a kid, but as time goes on things get abreviated and the meanings lost!
ancientbugger ·
A young guy up here for his first car was given by his loving father (read 'Idiot') a new WRX. Needless to say he almost killed himself in his second serious accident within a year. While he was in hospital recovering froma coma sustained in the aforementioned acident, the dad went out and bought him another WRX, the number plate of which was QIK FIX. This one has now been destroyed as well I believe.

"Because they dont pay the hundres of dollars each year that NSW asks"
Currently cost over $500 to insure a 1996 Ford Falcon (in QLD)🙅. The whole concept of paying $500 plus to simply say "I own a car, and live in QLD" has always been outta my minds grasp❓ . And of course the money doesn't actually get used for fixing roads. Saw a numberplate on a bommadore ounce saying "I8U4T" 😀. I thinks thats pretty smart👍

This morning I saw a very well looked after toyota starlet. It had a body kit, wheels, alteza lights, big bore exhaust, stick on racey petrol cap, other stickers on the back yet no number plate?
Why the hell would you do that with a starlet? How can you pretend to be a boy racer in a 55kw starlet? How many modern cars put out less than that? I could have excused it if it had TRY-HRD plates. For the same money you could probably get a brand new proton satria with 50% more power 😀
