How do I unrego my car and keep the plates?

Good question. There was a problem with some of the green digit plates which had the reflective paint fade and crack. I think originally they only wanted the effected plates replaced with the blue digit ones, and you got a new set of digits, no choice. Now I think VicRoads are ridding all green plates as soon as they come across any, with the blue plates, doubt if you'd be able to keep them green or even the same digits. Think you have a lot of questions to ask next time you are at VicRoads.
