I thought I heard somewhere that they are not being used any more???? I can't wait till that happens in QLD. WTF.... Seriously.... Once upon a time they used to fall off and you would need to order a replacement... Now they don't come off at all!!!!

Spent a good half hour getting the label and remaining glue off the windscreen of the BMW with a blade....little bit by flaky little bit at a time... Then scooped all the little bits up on the floor and then managed to stand on them... And couldn't unstick the flakes from my heel.... It was like an episode of Mr Bean!!!!

This is all that's left after the rest of the flakes got stuck to my foot!!!

Damn Brad, first you have trouble with getting parts fixed/painted/plated etc, now the frOcken rego sticker has it in for you   :D , me thinks you need a big break from all this car restoring and enjoy the 5000 and occasionally the brick for a little while.

Hahahahaha!!!! Yeah i know.... Im a whinger!!! hahahaha!!!!

The BMW already has a pile of bits and pieces sitting there wating for me to get some time to give it some much needed maintenance!!!

And I just received the carby kits for my twin SU's for the Mini. Noticed a fuel leak from the bottom of the bowl. So they will be getting pulled off and rebuilt soon to.


You othe guys are lucky you don't have stickers!!!! Why hasn't Can-do Newman cut them from the budget yet????

Sounds like we are the only state in the country still using labels. C'mon Newman, leave the public health system alone and chop these mate!!!!!

Stickers are still in use here in Mexico. But there is talk of making them redundant. So what happens with the mechaic who  takes a car for a test run? How does he/she know if it's registered or not?

In NSW, the removal of the stickers does not apply to those cars on Historic Rego...

be careful what you wish for brad and others!

rego stickers abolished in w.a some time ago

and my last one is still on the caprice as a reminder of when it's due

stiil risking a $100 fine for an expired rego label,  WTF

govt saves about 1 million and rakes in 1.5 to 2million in cosolidated revenue

from all the poor bastards that have no idea when there rego is due

vehicles all over the place here in w.a parked on the side of the road

with no rego plates on them

?if involved in an accident with some unsuspecting quite innocent individual

who has been caught out with no reminder or current rego 

will there insurance cover it

i don't think so!

time for mandatory insurance like the usa i say

just my two cents

i just recently removed the 1994 rego label off the a9x

coz now i don't have to have one

cheers davemc
