    Yes. Ibrahim, Mohammad and myself drove past in our stolen black G63 after cutting a few deals in the North. However we did better than that, we took both cars and torched them.

    There's another Prussian blue one getting around Melbourne, it came from Sydney about 6 months back. Has a blue interior, maybe that one. The car in the images has a black interior.

    I’ve seen and admired your car Carl, a few months back in Middle Park if you remember. I was driving past so I didn’t get to see the interior of the other one, but externally it was almost identical to yours.

    How do you get the slimline? They gave me these?

    I don’t mind the NSW or VIC club plates, as Carl said, no stamp duty!

    I think the slimline weren’t available when classic plates were first released, so depending on how long ago those were issued, they may not have been available. You could probably ask for slimline replacement plates now.

    You need to ask, however I don't think they were available when you permitted that car. They're a recent addition, and if course you pay more for them.

    Typical Carl, gave me no heads up as he sent me with the paperwork to VicRoads. Poor customer service.

    Why would stamp duty be 5x what the car cost?

    Tell me about it, I am about to be $20K out of pocket to replace a car that I shouldn't have to replace because of that accident. :(:(

    I'm eating 2 minute noodles here as it is trying to survive, after I buy this car I might have to swing past the Salvos for some soup also. :eek::eek:
