hey all,
my dad has an old landrover which is situated one hour past bathurst which he would like to bring home back to sydney. the car isnt regoed so it will either have to be trailered, towed or get some trade plates
the question is does anyone know where i can get trade plates, will only need them for a day, 2 days max or does any one have any which we could borrow.
we will pay u for the use of the plates if u would like
any help would be great. cheers

that plus ANPR (automatic number plate recognition cameras) =
1. number plates calculated to deceive
2. drive unregistered and uninsured motor vehicle
just get it towed or get an unregistered vehicle permit for the journey. it's very unlikely anyone would lend you their trade plate for the trip.

only costs about $80 to get a car trailer from a hire joint and tow it yourself.
