Exclamation New Colour Q Licence Plates

Pink plates? They're so us! :

HAVE you noticed the latest number plates on Queensland cars?

I think these sexy pink-purple plates will do more to change the image of Queenslanders around the country than any marketing campaign dreamed up by Premier Pete.

Are they the new symbols of metrosexual society? Who would have thought such an initiative could come from Queensland Transport?

The pink plates have been around for a while havent they?

Oh well old Lord Mayor Jim; he is an odd fellow. Priest turned politician and evidently a metrosexual.

He has to mean personalised...doesn't he?

This is an example of the Pink Personalised one...


But there are also these ones that might be what he is on about.
Gladstone

Mackay

Sunshine Coast

'Hibiscus'


Maybe someone told him that the pink personalised ones are now standard QLD plates...just after they also convinced him that gullible was taken out of the dictionary... :
