You've lost the plate unless you make the car roadworthy again as the car has to have been taxed within the last 12 months to be able to remove the number.

* the tax disc for the donor vehicle has expired no more that 12 months previously. (Prior to 1 December 2005 the concession was six months). Please note that to qualify for this concession, there must be no break between the natural expiry date of the licence (tax) and the commencement of SORN. This concession does not apply if you have submitted your licence (tax) for a refund

Absolutely ridiculous! They're actively encouraging me to ring a vehicle so I can retrieve my plate!
