Given the lack of info let's apply sound journalistic principles and make it up...

Unexpired demerit point shortage in Ezzyville?

The RTA has banned Orange cars.... It has found that Orange cars AND turbo-charged cars are a real risk on NSW roads...

Sorry to hear this Ezzy - take care... Maybe it is a good time to do some more mods on the car?? A super-charger perhaps???

nah.... plenty of points left (thanks mum and dad )
cut a long story short....
forgot to order the number plate i wanted a few weeks earlier and rego expired today
so went into the RTA and ordered the new plates and have decided to hold the rego off until the plates are made and ready for collection. hopefully it will be ready after the new years

/no refund for un-used portion of NSW custom plates

no, im 99.5% certain that the 8 will stay FI-less under my ownership

Um...why can't they give you an interim rego until the plates are ready?

Oh, silly me, thinking the RTA had any inkling of "customer service"
