    Enquired with ACT Rego today about getting a set of personalised plates for my Zed here in Canberra/ACT...

    What I was after fell into the category of "Unique" plates... I was far from ready for the quote that they fired back at me...

    [FONT=&quot]:banned:[/FONT]$ [FONT=&quot]2,258.30!!! :eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:

    Will have to stick with my standard rego plates... ... ... :mad:

    So much more expensive than other States/Territories...

    Pretty simple plate, actually...

    "LILBAZ"

    When I was shopping for plates ages ago, the upper limit for NSW was around $400 per year, for personalized plates. So that quote is not too bad if it's a 1-off payment.
    At least its better than every other ACT plate starting with the letter 'Y'

    I am paying a total of $880 pa for 300CAZ and 300BAZ (in NSW). It is hard to see the value, and I am thinking of letting them go. I till have BJE-300 in storage, which costs $90pa.

    $880pa would be better put towards the full leather re-trim I want to do.

    Glad I don't live in the ACT Iain.

    My personal opinion of 'personalised plates'...

    If you have any reference to the colour, make or model of the car they are on or what year the car was made in,

    "YOU HAVE ISSUES"
