My Corrado G60

[evorobin]

get the compliance plate made up

I'm still waiting for that piece of metal 3.5 yrs later. Chased em up after 2 years and they wittered something about new technology blah blah so I filed the letter saying it was kosha and forgot about it!

Should have told them it was already chipped

Went to see my car last wednesday and empty my personal effects from it.
Its in perfect shape thank god ! The mechanic i'm using is cool and sent off for the compliance plate before starting work on it.
The plate is ust a printed sticker apparently. As soon as this arrives (he reckons tomorrow or latest tuesday) i can drive it back to Manly !!

Thing is i'm not sure if i can afford to rego it straight away as its taken me longer to find work than what i expected and funds are running low.

Still, very excited to be getting here at last !!

Do your best man. Heaps of people I have spoken to have never seen one and would love to see it at the cruise next week.

[OEM G60]

They've put me back till Thursday now Not a happy chappy. Still i'll try to rego it but i expect i'll have to wait for plates to be made now.
Patience is wearing thin.

You dont have to wait for number plates, just goto the RTA. I hope its ready man.

[OEM G60]

Would i have to wait for euro style plates ??

If you're not applying for a custom number and just taking the next one they have on the pile then you can get them straight away.

Otherwise take the standard yellow plates in the interim and wait for your special order. You can check what's available and how it looks on the RTA web site under "myPlates".

Thats good to know, i'm not going for personalised plates as i can't get what i want on there, i wanted N VW G60 but could only get N VW 60G.
So how much do you guys think rego is gonna cost ? Theres hope for me yet !!

[Golf Loon]

Once you have your blue slip inspection report, saying that the car is roadworthy, which should cost $30 or so. The CTP green slip, is your compulsary insurance will cost $567 from AAMI or NRMA and then RTA fees will be from $200+ depending on how much you say the car is worth. $3 per $100 of its value. Plus $30 for boring number plates. Personals will take much longer. You can always swop em later. Around $800 I`d say.

You can do the whole process in an hour if you try. See you at the cruise on Sunday I hope.

[OEM G60]

When you say boring number plates, do you mean euro style without them being personalised ??

Thanks for the help guys

[Golf Loon]

boring is yellow and black. boring euro cost $60 I think. get yellows and wait for your personals.

How about VWG60J should be able to get that in black and white.

Picked the car up today !! Drove it over the harbour bridge on the UK plates, now its all rego'd and sorted out !

Job done, well happy.

See you on Sunday ...........

Well done!

Congrats, Mate. A privilege to have you aboard. As far as I know there are no Corrados in Tassie , so when you get a job and some $$$s come over and make us all jealous.
