Unfortunately Qatar Living has a lot of people who just take guesses.
I renewed my car 3 months late (May 2013) and the fine is only 500 QR. You have a grace period of 45 days.
You can see the captain if you have a genuine reason (example vacation, parts not available etc), but he will ask you to come back the next day or a couple of times before he waives your fine. You can save time by just paying the fine.
