nickchin1308 0 Report post Posted April 17, 2011 I think no front plates will be worse. First of all its pretty obvious and also on a black plate atleast you have a plate rather than nothing. Are you going no plates on the front now? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Apex 693 Report post Posted April 17, 2011 I can see Tristan on Police Ten Seven now.. Police officer: What’s your excuse for driving with those dangerous number plates son? Tristan: Well I asked a few people on the internet and they told me it was less dodgy to run them than no plates at all. Police officer: OMG FAIL GTFO. Always blow on the pie. $400 fine. Don't pass go. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Palazzo 477 Report post Posted April 17, 2011 The only accurate way to measure this is to keep a log book for say a 4 week period, running each plate (or lack thereof). Keep a log book for each km driven and also whether at night or daytime. Then divide the number of kms driven by the number of fines received. You will then have an accurate picture of what will gather the most fines and also whether time of day is a deciding factor. Look forward to the results.

hybrid 1043 Report post Posted April 17, 2011 My experience of running both no plate when I first got the 330i repainted was I got pulled over every few weeks for no plate. Got several warnings then started getting nailed as it stayed on my traffic record. The m325/e30 use to run german plates while I never got pulled over for that car, ruinning it even fully certified and legal, I really couldn't be bothered with the hassle of being pulled over. $150 per shot = not really worth it in my opinion. not that I think its right, but its easier to save for a full euro NZ plate.

Lucan 196 Report post Posted April 17, 2011 (edited) I was told running German plates is classed as using false plates $200 (?) fine, 20 demerit points. Edited April 17, 2011 by Blackie Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Driftit 2078 Report post Posted April 17, 2011 I was told running German plates is classed as using false plates $200 (?) fine, 20 demerit points. Yes that is correct. They will fine you for Fraud. Similar rule applies to people running a Dealers plate on a car that already has a rego in NZ. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
