    Default Current VIC Number Plate Sequence...

    Quick FYI for those that like plates with double meanings, the Victorian standard plates are currently in the "YNV" sequence. You won't pay extra for them.

    Cheers!

    Thank god for that, from all the people that "can't afford" personalised plates...Or is that can afford but choose not to because they are cheaper in America...LOL

    No doubt it will be similar to other states...

    XXX-NNX

    where X = letters and N = numbers.

    World explodes.

    But seriously, I suspect they will create a new format. Something like the EURO style.

    WTF? Where have I ever claimed that?

    And not that it matters, but a number plate on a car for me is simply a requirement. I just posted this for others that might be interested.

    WA changed ours a few years back, added a 1 in front.... so plates are 1XXX-NNN.

    And for the trolls, nothing wrong with the OP from what I can see, looking to stir shit where there is none isn't clever.

    Hopefully they go to 7 letter/number format , which would mean you could get personal plates with 7 letters and could finally get "Trayner"

    In NSW when they ran out of the old xxx-111 style they went with xx-11-xx in standard format and xxx-11x for the premium style plates.

    How can they only be at YNV when last September when my dad bought his VS SS Ute and got new number plates they are YPZ, and when I got my Magna about a week after he got his Ute and I had to get new number plate, mine start with YQN.

    Yet when they changed to blue they skipped a few letters and started at "N". Never managed to figure that one out

    I'm not sure either, but I know that number plates that start with "M" was reserved for government vehicles and was red letters on a reflective white background.

    Used to be a HT panel van getting around in Perth(Scarborough) many years ago that sported Tasmanian rego. The plates were blue on white Tassie plates with RTA-XXX. Almost exactly the same colours as the W.A. RTA used on it's cars back then(late 70's) which were all RTA-XXX. Saw it pulled over a few times, poor buggers, talk about cop bait.

    Meh, for some kind of special plates though.

    All depends which branch of Vicroads the car is registered at. We have just started using YUK-*** at work.
