NZ numberplates, for whatever reason, are not printed with leading zeroes in the numeric portion. This is something I noticed years ago. I, er... tend to notice these things.
Therefore, each letter combination will be followed by one, two or three (or four) numerals, with the first one of those numerals never being zero.
In other words, registration plates would have been printed in series under LZ as:
LZ1 - LZ9
LZ10 - LZ99
LZ100 - LZ999 (the 900 plates of which Sanx speaks)
LZ1000 - LZ9999

Eeerrr, yes, I did have my doubts while writing it...
I suppose calling you pedantique would send the BDOTGNZA in a spin, would it?

It is the BDOTGNZA's position that using 'que' where a 'c' will do perfectly well constitutes unjustifiable frippery.

No my dear, it would be a french adaptation adding elegance and style to an otherwise bland terminology describing the overly zealous approach of some to the menial task of grammatical exactitude observed ad nauseam...
