It's mildly annoying to have to remember to go buy them and the slightly unnerving when you realise you've gone over. I've never got pulled up on being over and I was unwhittingly driving around for ~3 months that way.
In rural towns I'd say enforcement is passive in that they mainly rely on vehicle sales and other events to trigger re-ups. It is weird how many diesels have broken ODOs compared to petrol cars. ๐ค
Oh I never considered there might be consequences. I also drove around for months over the RUC km limit, and only recently thought to check and was several thousand km over.
I really hope they come up with a good system.
