Red Colour Number Plate

[--GeNeX--]

Some of those cars have been imported under Car Net by foreigners or Sri Lankan expats. I think they can run under their foreign plates while they are in the country. But I take your point that some of these vehicles are foreign imports which have not been properly registered in SL.

What is car net?

I see you are from London. It's not the same system here. You can't temporarily import vehicles for use in SL. Hence why only SL reg allowed! In UK, vehicles registered in EU can be imported on temporary terms by expatriates. Even so, vehicles registered outside EU can't run in UK without registering.

GeneX, I currently live and work in London but I am born and bred in Sri Lanka and for all intensive purposes consider myself Sri Lankan. I am quite familiar with the "system" in Sri Lanka.

Read this thread. You will understand what I meant.

Hold your horses son! I was only saying your status says London, so was trying to clarify the different systems.

Ah ha, that's some valuable info. Although it seems to state that items have to be exported from US? Am I correct? Even so, I don't think the vehicles can be driven on SL roads with the foreign plates because Carnet seems to only sort out customs. I could be only speculating now.

I think you are the one who should leave (another suggestion with the "should" part included) since you are the one who is making waves here like a small child. everyone should be able to express their ideas. I was telling the truth all the time, people with stupid but big heads are getting hurt and now asking me to leave lol !

btw, a lot of suggestions coming with "should" , "must" type words! lol

You think? Think some more, and you will realize no one cares about what you think.

You're quite mistaken if you think anyone got hurt. I simply noted that you're an idiot and no asset to the forum. No use having you around. You're just pollutant.

And your "truth" exists only in your own head. I don't get "a lot of filthy words sometimes, loku scene, and crap talks and will also have to lose few hundreds of bucks out of your pocket in the end at the police checkpoints." If you do, its probably coz you tried the same attitude on them that you tried here. Think about THAT!

Well even I am not aware of the exact process beyond customs clearance, or even if they need to be registered or insured in the country to be legal. Items can be exported from any country which has signed up to the program.

the G11-XXX red plates are garage plates given to various importers and motorcar companies

they can use it while testing vehicles on road.

the 2010-2011's

are government issued numbers for certain vips and who knows what.president's car and a few other vehicles used to have them,but now politicians guard horses to there nephews own them.

The V*P and the vvip is also issued to government heads ,not only politicians.armed forces.and ministry of defence,lotteries board and so on .

thats the info i know.not sure though .

,but now politicians guard horses to there nephews own them.

I normally love riddles, but whats that?

[Donnie Brasco]

Apart from the genuine escorts of VIPs most of the time these number plates are used by "Kade" buggers. and most of these V*P and VVIP stickers are fake.Technically all the genuine V*P and VVIP stickers should be registered with the Ministry of Defense.It has a specific number for it.and if you get a chance look really close to some of these V*P and VVIP stickers that are pasted on windshields,i saw one it was the VVIP car pass to park in a Temple for a specific "Pinkama" and he runs with that everywhere in Colombo. lol .It was so funny during the election time i saw old Nissan homy and Caravans with WPC 2010/2011 number plates in Ratnapura. and i've seen those J44 jeeps with the same in front of a famous minister's house in Colombo.The most hilarious thing was anybody who drives on Galle road from Dickman's junction towards Colpetty side must've seen that they have cops in every by road since they made it one way from last Monday.Last night i saw a Prado with a red no plate going in the opposite direction making so much trouble to the normal vehicles and every cop look the other way or just smiled at them. "Land Like No Other" it is.

Hmmm interesting

I actually came across a prius with an EU numberplate and was wondering what the hell that was all about, the driver seemed friendly so i had a little chat.

Apparently according to him he has dual citizenship and was in the country for only 8 months so the "they" (customs i think, wasn't very specific) allowed him to bring his car and gave him a temporary license to run which is valid for a year, the deal is that if he wants to run it for more than 1 year he has to register it and pay the vehicle import taxes or ship it back to where it came from.

The person made who is responsible of taking decisions whether a certain person is smart or stupid and tagging them as stupid or smarts? wow! quite a job right? lol

you might be driving a Bugatti veyron in your day to day life and got hurt when someone says prius is a good car. But that doesnt matter here. first thing, the OP has made this thread to talk on a certain topic. He might be not impressed when a certain guy just jumped into the middle and start taking revenge from other forum users in his thread. The second thing is, your words are stinky and filthy. You cannot call anyone stupid or anything like that. I was expressing my ideas. You are tagging others as stupid or smart, trying to play god. Making judgments etc and most of all, considering that as a huge contribution for the forum as well. lol

Look, I am not even going to bother reading up what the fuss is all about.

Everybody is free to express their ideas as long as they are in good tastes and within the laws of the land but remember by doing so you also leave yourself open to criticism.

I hope you have also realised you are suggesting the forum moderator to leave, which is a bit silly.

If you want respect, well earn it! Nothing is free in this world

I have nothing against criticism.

But did not expect this type of criticism.

And its coz you post crap like this that no one should listen to your "advice", or the opinions you have posted on that hybrids selling thread.

specially, talking about something I have posted in some other thread.

Post hijacking,

Trying to tag someone's opinions as "crap" according to his personal opinions and because of that, asking him to leave,

Trying to tag other people around you as stupid because his ideas doesn't match with yours,

wow! what a moderator.

moderator or what ever, it doesn't matter. Everyone should follow good verbal habits and respect others in the society.

Errrr.... What? I'm assuming you're objecting to something, but you're making a complete hash of it. If this is how you try to prove you're not stupid, you aren't doing a very good job

My words are stinky and filthy? Errr... How old are you? 5?

Hey, you expressed your ideas. Newsflash kid, I can express my ideas too. I expressed my ideas about your ideas. Now stop making judgments about my judgement.

Also, thanks for calling me God. I've got that a few times, tho never from a guy first time for everything.

You seems to be happy to hear it from a guy it seems! but i did not mean such a thing though, so now you are mentioning god as an icon of "something else"

about the 5 years old thing, it doesn't matter how old someone is. You should respect others and you do not have authority to tag others as idiots and smarts. It doesn't matter you are a mod or an alien or what ever. Learn to respect other people. You have the freedom to express ideas. But you cannot use that to make problems in the society. And the other thing is, so now you are saying that this forum is not suitable for minors? some 18+ thing? filthy language is the official language here? is that what you meant? as a mod in the forum?

Hypocrite

I would say this is... "joblessness". Looking forn an entry point for some other's argument. lol

Obviously, you can't understand what I mean. Clarification. The forum isn't suitable for idiots. Again, thats why you should leave

If the lol made you confused and did not get what I said,

Its the joblessness and the retardants clearly, if someone is browsing this forum just to find a place to get into some others argument.

The next thing is, I was suggesting him to leave since I believe that people with that sort of verbal habits does not fits in a community like this.

It doesn't matter whether he is a mod or as he has mentioned here, a homo god, he cannot insult another person or an opinion expressed here.

btw, there is a full stop, if you did not notice. I suggest you to take a more time and read posts again and again several times until you fully notice all letters in it.

Bye.I suggest you to leave, this place is not suitable for you then, find some gay community if thats what you are expecting here. I do not want to waste my time reading your useless comments or talking to a totally-useless people. If you want to take this discussion further, I suggest you to stop talking about your sexual orientations and stuff. Clearly explain why my first post is not suitable.

As I have shown you why your posts are unsuitable and then why you doesn't fit in any kind of public communities other than specially made ones for people like you.
