forum_emoticons.html	[quote=ingo,32301] This is indeed very attractive, because cars older than 25 years are tax-free in NL. This is a reason, why you can see many more bigger older cars, Mercedes and so with Dutch plates (with combinations for later imported cars) than in the past. I remember, when I was small, the average car in Holland was smaller an in a more simple edition than in Germany. So real standard versions of Opel Kadett for example you could see there quite often. Unfortunately the other life is very expensive in Holland, compared to Germany -especially houses (which are usually not as good as German houses, too)- so it makes no sense for me to "emigrate" 40 kilometers more West. The tax-free registration for my K 70 wouldn't help that much. There is a guy in our K 70-Club, he acts in this way. He lives on the Dutch side of a small village. There his K 70 is registrated, too. His girl-friend lives on the German side, 200 meters more East - there their all-day-Golf is registrated. All other things were decided "call-by-call", where it's better to be, in the Netherlands or in Germany. :)[/quote]

I recently learned that new plates for special cases were expected for this month, but that it had been delayed in the end:

(only next year)

Good to know :smile:

Very accurate. The red for the reproduction must be RAL 3003 and not any red.
That's one of the rules for the shops since 2010, because with the introduction of euro plates the DIV was planning to deliver both plates and do away with reproductions. After complaints they managed to keep their business but what they're selling really has to be standardized.

Now another question: how accurate must be the reproduction of the plate? :grin:

chicomarx

Maybe the police is easier about the front but normally it's the same rules.
The traffic code says "no manipulations" to the plate "and her reproduction":

Article 31
§ 1er. Il est interdit de procéder à des manipulations sur une marque d'immatriculation ou sa reproduction ou dans leur environnement immédiat et qui prête à confusion avec le contenu de son inscription.
Le forage de trous supplémentaires dans la marque d'immatriculation ou dans sa reproduction est interdit.
§ 2. La marque d'immatriculation et sa reproduction ne peuvent en aucun cas être recouvertes, même pas avec une matière transparente.

Is this plate legal?

In Germany you get in trouble, when you make changes on plates, even on the blue Euro-bar on the left. It's a forgery of a document, because valid (with the silver county sticker seal on) plates are documents here.

Most common is, to put a little round sticker of football clubs in the Euro wreath of stars.
And there are Nazis, who cover the Euro bar with black-white-red stickers.

It's not legal but that's not stopping anyone here, she's a politician for N-VA.

"And there are Nazis, who cover the Euro bar with black-white-red stickers."
But the eurozone is the German empire they dreamed about, they should love it. :grin:

For the front, isn't it legal? As it is just a copy of the front made by the owner?
Or are there now more strict rules for that copy?

Wait, why do you want to rebuild the wall? Is it just completely satirical? Wikipedia says you also want a war with Liechtenstein. (easy win I should think)
Isn't the AFD a better prospect? It being on the right attracts some far-right fringe but that doesn't mean they should control the whole party.

Sure, the project of rebuilding The Wall is meant satirically - but due several incidents and election results in the Zone (= Cold War speech for the former DDR) we get more and more seriously meant support of the people in West Germany.
We are so fed up with these uneducated, undemocratical Nazi morons :bombe:

No, the AfD is absolutely not discussable. It's clearly and for 100% a Nazi party.
The more (Western) educated and wealthy the people are, the less they vote them.
Especially in the West it is definitely a party for the uneducated precariat.

My PARTEI is rather located on the left, but with an elitist approach.
We have no connections to working class or precariat concerns.

Huh, NVA is an abbreviation, which in Germany is not communicable:

No, our Nazi- and right-wing-morons dislike the Euro and the Eurozone, the EU at all. They want to have the D-Mark and demarcated nations back.

We have also a kind of separatist party in Germany - but separatism in a different way:
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Die_PARTEI
we (I'm an active member) want to have back the German partition - but from the other side :banzai:

My recent trip to Brussels was for this purpose. We had our regional party conference there
