So how does it work in Belgie then with the numberplates? Are they registered to you as a person rather than the car if you know what I mean?
Nice cars btw!

yes numberplates are registered to the owner when you sell your car you can keep the same plate or send it in and ask for another one |

It would worry me, having a car as low as your Beetle. What if you're driving at night, and whack a protruding manhole (drain) cover at speed?!
