Good morning,
Do you have to expect a fine if you make private journeys?
Let's say I buy a car today and registration takes about 1 week.
I get temporary license plates just for the transfer from the dealer to me. What happens if I continue to drive the car with the temporary license plates until I get my real license plates?

Loading...Hello, I was planning to buy my first house. But then I got a notification saying I should wait for Simon's call. So I got that, and then I got his call, and he said something like, "You have no style, get a car, blah blah." OK. Buying a house still doesn't work, so I'll…
Hello everyone, I have a Tesla Model Y LR…I really love this car, it's just awesome… But my biggest "hate" point is charging – even when it's at 100% I'm always thinking about where I can charge again and especially how long. I don't have the option at home, but about 1km on foot to…
Hi guys, My parents came to me recently and wanted to know what car I wanted for my 18th birthday. The first car that came to my mind was a BMW M5 (2023) An Audi A5 (2023) would also be an option Now I wanted to ask if these cars would be a good option…
I want to buy a new car, but due to its age and high mileage, the vehicle is only sold to businesses or dealers due to the statutory warranty. Can I register a small business, buy the car, and then deregister the business? Because there's nothing comparable available for that price. What do I need…

Has anyone ever looked into this? Identified the pros and cons of the vehicles? Should be a diesel, from 100 hp, max. 3 years old, up to 30,000 km and 20,000 €.
If the temporary license plate expires, you can't park or drive the vehicle on public property because it's no longer insured. You can drive it on private property even without a license plate. It's not permitted on public roads. I don't know what you mean by "private use." Is the vehicle otherwise only used for business purposes?
Privatfahrten in dem Sinne das ich damit noch einkaufen fahre, zur Arbeit oder mit freunden rum Fahren.
The license plate can be used for test drives and transfers . All other types of use are prohibited. Temporary license plates are available from vehicle registration offices.

If it gets discovered, you'll be charged with tax evasion, among other things. Of course, no one can know whether it will be discovered. This refers to the situation where the temporary license plate is still valid for a certain period of time, but you're using it for something other than a test drive or transfer. If the license plate has expired, it's even worse. And that's more likely to be discovered, because the date is on it.

You are allowed to drive within the permitted period.
You can face a fine of… to…; if you repeat the offense, you can expect more severe penalties. However, you can drive for one week.
Not outside of a test drive and/or delivery drive
Es sei denn es ist Beruf oder Gewerblich
That is of course true
As far as I know, that's not the case either. That's what the "red license plates" (dealer license plates) are for. Still, not in your described case, since the OP referred to private trips.
