Anyone knows why such vintage plates, their details can't be found online on OneMotoring's 'Enquire Road Tax Expiry Date'? Are these plates transferable to other cars?

U need the checksum

Ah i see! so they don't have to display the checksum alphabet at all? so is it officially SM8442 or SM8442L?

for those period car as long as the original plate remain on the original car no need the suffix..

If the plate been transferred to another car will need to put.

just a side note.. some plates you use the "road tax expiry" function may not get a result as the plate was retained..

Yeah man, got NATAS travel fair also at the same time as car expo that’s why so crowded, at the far end of the exhibition hall got some Thai music festival. Part of the  expo Carpark used for Go karting circuit also I think.

Seatbelts not compulsory for cars of a certain age or older.

Think it was sold as accord euro S for a short while only in Singapore. Not many units left.

Same story for big engine PARF cars nearing end of COE. 2.4L engine, rice boys can't afford the renewed COE and COE car road tax. Rich guys won't bother with this at all.

Actually I’m thinking of getting one euro S now, trade in my  old coe civic  but then I look at my bank account then just shake my head and say forget it lol 😆

Wow! Now I know there is such a thing. I used to think that the white strip on the sidewall is painted instead.
