Help me play around with number plate ideas!!!!
OK I just rang Vic Roads to find out about custom number plates
Bel is not on her original plates and has the newer blue and white ones, so I'd like to go back to black and white older style
BEL 58 is available for $415
If I add either a letter or number the price comes down to $310
I could go
BEL 158 (FOR TYPE1)
or I could do
VWT 158
This is the style/ old looking
I guess 3 letters and 3 numbers makes it look like a real number!!! What do you think??
There is always JENZ58 but who would want them is I did ever sell her??

Hey N
I just rang motor reg
VWI 958
TYP 158
VWT 158
Are all due for future, general, release and I can get them now if I was happy to have them in the current standard colour and style Damn!!!!!!
VW 1958 has been taken
VLKS 58 is available
The guy was really helpful and tried to find Bel's original number for me but with no luck. She's had an engine change before I got her and
then I changed her engine back to a 36 hp, but still not her original
I can see why it is such a plus if you can get all of the original paper work with the car when you buy it:thumb

or BUG 158
I'm guessing that BEL 158 or BUG 158 have been issued some time ago as standard numbers. It's a matter of if they are available for me to
buy
I'd like to go the black and white plates so ones like VLK 558 , cos it would come under the still to be issued category and have to be on
standard type plates

I rather like the whole VLK *insert numbers here*...... rather clever...... original papers would be cool....
I was impressed with my numbers when I got it. (I'm a big Harry Potter fan - the books not the movie!!!!) and my plates end with *note this is
not personalized* HJP - Harry James Potter.....ok, well I was the only one who noticed but hey........
*laughs*
I like BUG 158.....but whatever you like......

I like the look of VWT 158 looks std but at second glance any veedubber would know
I've just changed the plates over on my bus this week to AVWBUS I've had them for a while but was lazy, cost me $315 at the motor show dont
worry AVWBUG was gone would of been great to have the pair next to each other!

Jen, its only about $70 more for the less charactered plates... I'd say go for the dearer one! It looks heaps better too! Don't about
selling her! Get in that dam sunroof and plan to keep her as long as you live!
on the other hand:
FIFTY8
and for anyone who is interested, I've seen a BMW X5 with the orig enamel plate 7 around Prahran and if that wasn't enough, later that day i
saw a Benz S class (a phat one at that) with 3...that plate is worth more than W8 Passat i think!
BLING BLING

Nah, I want to keep her for sure:kiss
$70 isn't much in the long run. I just wanted feedback on it
But isn't it strange that the price drops $105 when you ADD a letter or number. Go figure????
BEL 58 $415
JENZ58 $310

OK so if you wanted VUU 058 would you be happy with the standard plates (here, blue and white, with 'Victoria - the place to be' on them???)
That's my choice with these type of numbers cos they are gunna be issued stock/numbers
Can we guess you're name is
I want the black and white with just 'Victoria' underneath the number :sandrine
What a cute grandmother you have!!!! So can we assume your name is Br...?
Don't you love decyphering number plates????:bounce:bounce:bounce

VUU-058 is better than JENZ58 unless you want to take the plates with you when you sell the car...same with BEL anything...
And you get the excitment of new number plates with each new car

That's the prob with JENZ58 if I sell her then I possibly won't be getting another 58????
ande then do they become another thing that gets put in the back of a cupboard until you have a big cleanout

Exactly, so go with the car options and sell the car with the plates... and maybe (probably not) in 20 years someone will pay $5k for VUU-058 for
their restored 58 beetle or kombi...
VWY-00T forsale $2000, imagine that?

I'll add my vote to JENZ58.
The nsw rta website has a page where you can play around with number plates, different styles and check if they're available. They dont have
something like that at vicroads?

I bet that one has been taken, but with three letters and 3 numbers it could have been issued to any old car, not a Herbie
