My guess is that the cops followed him in there and found that the thing was unregistered and took the plates off it.

Exactly.
A phone call to the Police is more appropriate, they can canary it or order it off the road.
Vicroads cant do much about it though.

It doesn't work at all. The kinetic design of the AU interior couldn't be any more different from the sleek lines of the BA interior. And he kept the original radio cassette!

Try asking almost any woman what they drive...

Sometimes you'll get at least a manufacturer.

This makes me sick....5 bucks worth of car with a 3.5k or more ID plate...

What IDIOT would buy that? No wonder they are so expensive with knobs actually buying them in this condition. How pathetic.
