kenny999 Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 What is the deal with these plates, had my Nissan March 2 months now, called dealer today he says you will get white plate maybe March, why does this take so long? am I right in saying by law you should get white plates within one month!!

katabeachbum Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 so many existing threads on this kenny, but yes 30 days/3.000km is the legal limit Nissan Phuket is one of the worst bullshitters around, they lie to you cause they have 6 months interest free credit on car, but must pay supplier when they want documents from Nissan to register. I would cool it 10 more days as that gets you 2012 in reg book, and then insist on registration by waiting a full day in showroom. Car is still not yours until you have white plates Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wandrinstar Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 The white background on the new plates are no longer paint. They are some sort of coating that crumbles in very hot sun. Look a right mess. Dont know if they replace em free or not.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Accord has one crumbly plate,in only18 Months and since ive spotted several others on newish rides in Car Parks. But you only keep things 10 Mins anyway.
