Whats the score then ? can you get it insured and cruise around on the UK plates for a bit ? ( that would be cool ! ) or do you have to get it inspected and rego'd before any charging about can be done ?
If you're visiting Australia, and intend to take the car out again within 12 months, you can keep your existing plates etc. If you have moved here, and are importing the car, then you have to register it here. On the two cars I have imported over the years I unpacked them from the container, had the steam cleaning done, roadworthy inspection done, registered and fitted the new number plates all in about 2 hours!
Yeah as peter just pointed out, i'll have Australian plates on it. I'll drive it from Botany to Manly RTA on the UK plates though !!
The biggest delay is getting the car compliant, takes time to put the child seat anchors in and get the compliance plate made up.
The car arrived a day late but its in Botany at the mo, it will go to the mechanic next week !! Can't wait !!
Do not offer too much information to the RTA.
I had an '86 Golf 2 from the UK. Did not have a compliance plate. The child seat belts were just connected to the small metal tabs next to the tail lights. Easy!
