    At $300K+ or whatever these 2 digits go for I think I will stick to looking for the 3 digit stuff

    I'd rather put that towards the F40 :D

    If only they were $300k, I think it would be worth more?????

    I'd buy the new plates. These guys are just like the Taxi guys, they want to protect their investment.

    Go for it VicRoads I say. At the end of the day they still do have the original first plates and I think that's what VicRoads will say. NO differnet to buying a car then a new model comes out.

    There will always be a market for them, meanwhile give the average Joe a chance I say.

    Well thats why I put the + in. I think all the 2 digits are pretty much $300K at least but would obviously vary depending on the number (teens and "special" numbers presumably being worth more) so could be quite a range. All just hypothetical anyway unless you find someone needing/wanting to sell and I don't think many owners of single/double digits are in that position.

    I'd only consider V plates at a really low relative price. I like 360C's quote about all plates apart from single/double/triple digits being a form of "voluntary taxation" - I think there's something in that!

    i wonder what's single Letter plates worth?

    Some of the plates are not on cars, does that mean you can request for it to be auctioned after a certain amount of years after it hasn't been registered?

    You can have plate you want in the NT for $50 - unfortunately useless outside of the NT (and yes they do police the whereabouts of the plates).

    Some are worth it. EXTC1 sold for $20k last month. I wonder what my EXTSY is worth then. This is perfect for someone that doesn't know what else to buy their wife :)

    By the way, M0MM1 sold in the uk last year for 20,000GBP
