Surely upon return of a plate (if this episode of confiscation does happen) the new plate would still have the original sequence, if so then I've lost my orignal black plate ;)

you can cancel a hold at anytime by getting a new rego, or by asking for the hold to be released
the people at the post shop can sort it

If they want you to return your plates, just say you'll find them and bring them in at a later time but still put on HOLD. Then dont do it.OR do it ONLINE. I have just put 3 of my cars on HOLD ONLINE. Easy. Way faster than wasting my time & gas going to the shops.

You can cancel, but you are then liable for licensing fees for the entire period your car was off the road (been there, done that).

According to NZTA Palmerston (who I spoke with last week when re-holding 4 cars); if you put it back on the road within 3 months you will be charged back reg. Any longer period & this doesnt apply.

I don't need to. I don't work on opinions of others - only fact.

Please point out where it says anything to the effect of "Your plates will only have to be surrendered if NZTA has good reason to confiscate them".

Just to add fuel to the fire my solicitor tells me that as a legal term the word "may" canmean "shall".If the "hold" is done on line are we now going to have a visit from a "plate collector".The mind boggles.My opinion is get caught driving aon a "hold" plate then you will loose it, car in back shed on blocks is never going to loose its plates.
