Hey Guys

I know this mite sound a bit weird - but i would really appreciate your input into devising a number plate msg for my black 05 stivo.

I was thinking TRD - 141??? Is this a bit pov??

I dont wanna use my name cause i think NAT as the 3 letters would look pov - you always look at those number plates, when people put their names on

them and think theyre pov!! I do anyways - no offence to anyone.... :whistling:

In tas theyve just launched tasplates - which gives us the opportunity to design a plate with 3 letters followed by 3 numbers and a choice of 5 colours for

$295 :yahoo: I know tas is a bit slow on doing these things!!! You can get a 6 letter word for $950 - but i think thats a bit steep, afterall its only a number

plate!!

So any ideas you guys think of or have seen before would be greatly appreciated!!! ;)

Thanx - i know it seems weird - but hey im stuck!!! :D

TRD-141 is probably the only good one if you can only do three letters followed by three numbers haha & what the hell is pov?

Yeah makes it hard only 3 letters 3 numbers hey - but $950 i would rather spend on other stuff not a number plate!!

Maybe pov is a Tassie word - its means like stupid or lame!!!

No I remember the word 'pov' in NSW a few years ago, so no it isn't a Tassy word and yes Tasmania is a few years behind :P

there is nothing wrong (or pov) with using you name in your plate.. except when the fee comes and you BECOME a povo for a good 6 weeks trying to recoup your losses...

personalised plates are annoying to pay for, but very satisfying...

it depends if you want your plates to reflect YOU... or your CAR... i chose to reflect me because i knew if i changed cars i could take them with me (my name aint changing)...

just avoid things like DOMIN8 or Q2CDIS or something equally homo...

"Pov" - derived from the word "poverty", first syllable. One must look at associated conditions of being poverty stricken to derive its colloquial meaning. For instance, sickness is very often associated with poverty - ie. lame. Therefore, to use the term "pov" is akin to using lame, or other similar substitutes.

Likewise, lack of money is also correlated with poverty. Therefore, appropriate synonyms may be "budget" or "economy". So to then call something Pov is to say it is budget, or poor... which, of course, has certain negative connotations.

So "Pov" is not something you really want your car to be... especially as vehicles are commonly used as status symbols!

In the context that Rolla Boy used it, that is true and is the most common meaning. But in the context of Honda's it means 'power of vtec'.

Agreed. Personalised plates are just that - personalised. Get something that means something to you, or that is applicable to your car. Personally, I love Dennis's "ZZE-122" - lucky ***** for thinking of that! :) It just completes the car imho. Homosexuality = ONE2NV, Q2CDIS, URMYQT, LMN88R etc... I just don't understand why people want to look retarded and dyslexic.

And why/how would having your name on your plates look cheap? You should get what you can afford.

Hey Guys,

Thanx heaps for your input!! ;)

At the mo im looking at either TVO - 005 or NVY - 001. I like the second one better cause then i can take it with me and the first one will have to stay with

the car! Its been pretty much 50/50 with my friends and family so what do you guys think? Which one??

TVO - 005 (as in sportivo)

or

NVY - 001 (as in envy)

Cheers, thanx guys!!!

If I were you I'd get the TVO-005. Unless you have a ferrari or something equivalent, most people will not "envy" a road car they see all the time. Besides, you might want different plates for your next car...

      Long start time when engine warm - 2004 Corolla

      Hi guys, I’m a long time Toyota owner, and am currently enjoying a 2004 Corolla Wagon with the 1.8 1ZZ-FE. The car starts and drives really well, however during warm starts (after sitting for 5 minutes) the car cranks for around 6-8 seconds before starting. It’s worth noting the following: - The car starts right away in the morning or if it hasn’t been driven for a couple of hours. - There is no indication of rough idle or fluctuations when driving - Outside air temperature doesn’t seem to make a difference I’m wondering if anyone has experience with this issue? I’m leaning towards vapour lock in the fuel rail caused by leaky injectors? I’d appreciate any advice or if anyone has had a similar issue with their car. Thanks very much in advance, Oakley

      Head Unit with Apple CarPlay

      Hi gillystylez, the link for your car and stereo is https://aerpro.com/vehicles/toyota/toyota-rav4-2013 I am not to sure with yours but you will need the APP9 Harness and Patch Lead, double DIN facia plate, possibly the T Harness (for adding aftermarket bluetooth car kits), double check with a supplier of the kits (Super Cheap, Repco...) to make sure of what you will need and get a quote on fitment or harness. I had to buy HEAPS more cables with the JVC unit and it was very expensive. Hope that helps!

      Brand new Prado 2022 with intermittent engine/transmission stutter

      Gday Doug (600C), I have a 2023 GXL that from new that has a ‘whoo-whoo’ sound at similiar revs that you describe. Its most anoying at 75km/hour in top gear under load ie. up a slight hill. Toyota guy cant give an explaination but says he drove another one with only 1000kms on the clock and did the same. Have you found a cure or diagnosis at all?

      Corolla 2007/2008 ZRE152 2ZR-FE Hood insulator

      Hi, I've tried to get a hood insulator from Amayama OEM suppliers and Sydney wreckers with no luck. Wreckers usually sell hoods/bonnets with them attached. I called Toyota and unbelievably. they sell them for $700 plus. Is there a way to repair? or get some insulator material to make my own? My one is crumbling and cracked.

      Prado 2012 Issues starting first time, sometimes

      Hi all, For some reason my 2012 Prado is having dramas starting first time every so often. Regularly serviced 192k KMs. Sounds really rough during initial failed attempt to start. Then on second attempt will start fine no drama's. Sometimes I can hear a little bit of that initial struggle during a cold start and will still start. Everything else seems to be running fine. Thinking it could be a fob or immobiliser issue? Have had the same result with both main and spare key fob. Booked mechanic in a couple of weeks for diagnosis but hoping to point him in the right direction. First video is the no start and the second is immediately after appearing fine. Cheers! cold start fail.mp4 success.mp4
