I got:

Plate.JPG

Had'nt really thought the whole private plate thing thru when I went down to license the GTR for the first time in WA, I really just wanted Black plates for the black car, and all the obvious choices were gone already ie R32GTR, SKYLINE, GTR32, etc etc I could see the lady behind the counter getting pissed so I gave up and ended up with my license plate combo which is GTR as in the car and REA which is my surname.

"...I could see the lady behind the counter getting pissed so I gave up ..."

I was at the rod show yesterday and had a go at getting some there, the problem is there are now so many options the staff arent 100% sure and the brochure sucks. Best bet is always go the the licensing office, pref East Perth

west perths licensing centres good everyones really friendly

Shit! Just went to apply for my custom plates and they are on some protected list, the guy said it could be some government shire or something....Who woulda though [9326R] is on a protected list :), not happy!

so did ya think about getting anything else ?

the lady i spoke to @o'connor helped me out i tied up their computer for about 45 mins til we found the plates i got cos all the usual plates were taken.

r32gtr and gtrr32 are owned and have never even been on a car seems like a waste that people can go in and order plates and just leave them sitting there for years

wooohoooo, just ordered my plates. Not exactly what I had in mind but my other options were taken

[ 32BNR ] (on slimlines front and rear)

Very unoriginal but meh! Can you believe they weren't taken, oh well at least this chapter of my life is complete :)

    • Out here E90s are the cheapest way into a sporty-ish car because everyone knows just how expensive the repairs can get. 8-10k USD for an automatic 335i. 
    • Noted. Have noticed BMW are more 'high maintenance' for sure. They've attracted my attention as I think the used car prices seem reasonable vs other options, and the extra quality overall vs a commodore / camry / corolla or similar of the same vintage is appealing, especially the interior, and they are more on the sporty side whereas the others mentioned can be more cruising or economical A-to-B only.
    • Haha yeah I know, this is SAU after all, why are we talking about BMW's of all things!? I hear you on the 'don't have to worry about it' side of things. Having been fortunate enough to be have been able to buy a brand new motorbike or two...never really enjoyed them as much as I'd have liked as you worry so much about where you park it, will it get scratched, stolen, attempted theft, knocked over, etc...and yes dirty. Older less valuable bikes you can just go where you want and park it wherever and not really worry that much in comparison. And who cares if it gets dirty! Never owned a V8, and have had my eyes on VE / VF commodores for years but with their prices climbing so high, the M3 has come into focus more as prices are much closer than I've ever seen...is it a potential contender now?...of course need to factor in the S65 'maintenance' especially and like you said general M car 'tax'. One can dream anyway. But more on the reality front - did read the whole 330i thread as well and was a great read too, both threads enlightening as I've never even driven one of these cars! I do recall 330i didn't seem to have the same amount of issues for almost the same car (turbos and related differences notwithstanding)...perhaps down to getting it earlier in it's life so looked after better than the 335i? Perhaps so as your 130i has been good and quite similar, so finding a car that's been looked after well is the especially-crucial-BMW-first-step.
    • Nice. Dont worry about the time of not running. My current skyline hasn't run since I bought it. About 8 years ago.
    • It's also worth noting that I am heavily and unconditionally biased. I've had a lot of cars including some GTRs a fair while ago. I love my BMW's now a lot. They make no sense a lot of the time and the guys on here remind me regularly that I could get something else that does what I want better and cheaper. If you're going to take on an older BMW it's definitely a commitment. If you bail on it early you'll lose money and also the ability for it to put a smile on your face. Stick with it and it just gets better.  f**k I should get into advertising.
