search it online, for QLD (where I am) goto www.ppq.com.au and type in the plates you want. It will tell you if it's taken or not.

When I got my personalised plates, everyone was saying "they're gonna attract the cops for sure". 2 1/2 years later, and I still haven't even been glanced at by them.
Guess it depends how you drive it tho... :hihi:

I too have rather obvious plates and havent noticed any increase in police attention.

Top plate there mate, and your payment scheme is a bit diffrent to SA. That plate here would be a $170 once off payment. Wish mine [4 LITRE] were that cheep ($190/year).

Dude, I saw you out on the road yesterday. Can't remember where, but I went from Hawthorn to Campbellfield in the morning and was on the way there somewhere. I just remember the plates.

I had my car defected when it was parked at a shopping centre and I wasn't even at my car... so maybe my plates are cop bait. heh

Nice plates. Love the AUII wheels on the EDs!

Also, those houses around your car look very Western Suburbs-type, a la vintage Williamstown/Yarraville style. You from around there?
