Just came back from the RTA...Ok so heres my story. My Nissan Stagea, currently in Japan, but will be here start of December or thereabouts....
So heres me getting all excited, also being egged on by my folks....
"We want to get you some number plates, what would you like? "
So in the end, I decide to get TUF-25L Silver/Black....
Right, so the letter from the RTA arrives in my mailbox to go and pick up the plates...
"Hello"
"Hi, Im here to pick up some number plates"
"Do you have your letter..?"
"Yes"
"Will you be registering them with your car today?"
"Ummm...no, the car is in Japan, but will be here about December"
"Oh ok, I'm sorry to tell you that we cannot issue you with the plates untill the car is ready to be registered...Please note, that if the plates are not picked up within a month, they will be destroyed..."
" You have got to be kidding right?"
"No, I'm sorry sir, but those are the rules, you can opt to pay $140 dollers for us to hold the plates untill you need them, for up to 12 monthes..."
So, long story short, I payed the damn $140 so they can hold my plates 2 Monthes! Bloody rediculous..... I hate the RTA
*end rant*
Anyone else hate the RTA?
