    all gone loooong ago.

    all 3 digits are gone too, goober took the last of them i hear. a year ago you could get them for $1200, sadly i didn't have that kind of extravagant expendable income at that time :p

    i *think* there's maybe 1,500 4 digits left, minus all the "good" numbers held by govt.

    So place an ad in the paper under "wanted". An owner may take the bait.

    At the relatively small $ they cost in sadelaide, I would be buying 'em up.

    too true. it's a very good idea to be collecting as many 3-digit plates in SA as possible. not many people here know they're NLA yet...

    I'm not so certain of the investment value, one day, we might get rid of the idea of 7 different types of number plates for a country with only 25 million people.

    Heck,we might even get rid of state goverments and countless useless politicians draining our wallets.

    Whats the go with these new "signature plates"? it says there are a few available for auction then the rest will be available later on? is this just another way of revenue raising or what? Cost four grand for a set
    Any thoughts?

    Government revenue raising with somewhat limited investment potential IMO.
    Might be fun to own; but don't expect to make a killing.
