No one has noticed. If I get pulled over, I’ve paid my taxes on the plate, but it wasn’t transferred because I was lied to by the tax office. If you don’t know, in SC, you have to go get a tax form at one place, go pay your taxes at another, and then go to the DMV to actually get the tag/get it transferred . All of this leads to the problem of when you get Part 1 & 2 done, receive false information, and go to complete P art 3 a few days later, to find out that you do have to go through a third party to get a tag on a car with a lien.

Yay South Carolina

The tag/sticker is on the way, but I’m not not driving something I’ve paid the taxes on.

On a positive note, taxes on this was $25, I was about to owe $760 on the GTI.

Where did the GTI go? I’ve been trying to find it online.

Back to VW, judging by some of the paperwork I saw, I’m led to believe it might be crushed. VW is more than aware a bunch of children took it apart. They did a lot of damage to the driver’s side front suspension w hen they left it loose. They replaced enough of it that there is a chance it could have tweaked the chassis.

Well I went 11 months recently without anyone noticing.  Not even me.  So it can be done...

My only issue is that it's a temp tag from New Jersey on a bright yellow car in South Carolina.

Yeah I definitely don’t recommend it.

And knowing SC they’ll fine you a ridiculous amount for it.

I think I’ll be fine since I’ve already paid for it.

Gotta love beuracracy. Can any of the above steps be completed online?

It’s in the system then and won’t come up as expired if they run it.

Went out to wor k the day after mine expired, intending to go to the DMV at lunch. Got stopped on that drive in.  This was in Ann Arbor, where the police sometimes don’t have much more to do than tailgate you and run your plates.

Fellow South Carolinian here, you should be able to get a 45-day temp tag from the DmV for $5. I had to do that once when my 30-day tag from a Georgia dealership was going to expire before my tags came in. I once went a few months with  expired tags on my truck, I paid the taxes for my wife's car and it at the same time and the assessor sent both decals in one envelope (my theory) and I only saw the one for her car.  It took a while to convince the DMV that I'd paid my taxes and just needed a sticker...we had to have a conference call in the lobby with the tax assessors office  :-/

Something doesn’t seem right, I was able to walk into the tax office and pay my taxes immediately, without going anywhere else first . I then drove over to the DMV where I handed them that paperwork, my title to the M3,  my registration to the 3, and more money then left with plates. The 3 wasn’t any harder to register despite having a lien.

Yeah, but you already had the registration from Georgia, right?

That I did, guess that's the difference.

My longest was 13 months lol. I guess the cops around here don't care unless they're nabbing you for something else.

What do you mean by that? By “children,” do you mean the dealer techs?

That’s some pretty bad luck there.

Funny thing is that it was a Chicago cop that actually pulled me over for it.

I had a May sticker on the plate, and I think he pulled me over May 1 - possibly the May sticker with the wrong color was a red flag, IDK?

That was all that he pulled me over for - nothing else.

I’m seriously wondering about the GTI, but okay.

Reminds me of the time my friend needed to get his Alberta truck inspected to be registered here in BC, but ICBC wouldn’t give him a temporary permit to drive to the inspection shop because it wasn’t registered in BC.....
