I logged on to internet to renew my rego for the Xr8. I sort of didnt really look at the cost on the rego papers as its usually about $300 plus plates..
I log on and like a poke in the eye, $536? I started squinting and clearing my vision. Grabbed the rego papers and wham, another poke in the eye, the same $536. Motor Vehicle rego is $390 vehicle tax + $56 registration fee + $90 plates. Im sure they have snuck it up $100 from last year or maybe more. That will drop the *** end out of cheaper used cars with little rego left. With Green slip (compulsory) the cost is $1000 now minimum. My license also expired earlier this week, theres another $153 for the RTA. Another poke in the eye. |

Personalised plates here once you buy them they are yours, don't need to pay another cent. But they do range from about $395-2500.

Is that for personalised plates Hulk? Or have you had a set of standard plates reissued?

my ute was over a grand but this renewal was $999, ctp may have gone down. Just got a sedan will be interesting to see if its any cheaper than the ute. Also the cost between some of us in qld seems different, i wonder if thats rego or ctp?

My CTP Greenslip was cheaper than my RTA Fee's this year, LOL
Usually is the other way around. My Bike(Greenslip & RTA) on the otherhand, less than my BF's RTA Fee's

It's $670 for a 6 over here in S.A for country reg for 12 months and add around $150 for custom plates. and it's around $150-60 on top of that for V8 reg. But we don't have to pay for roadworthy tho

Mine is $860+ this year. But I pay $400 a year for my plates :(
Green slip is $460, which was about $200 less than I was expecting. Also had to change insurers this year, as my old insurer won't cover anyone under 30 now. So that went fom $1400+ to $700, as it was added on to our work fleet policy, and they already cover me to drive the buses.

Qld sure has it tough but I can never understand why the pricing isn't uniform Nationally. Just ridiculous. Everything in Australia seems done from State to State which causes so much confusion and makes living between States complicated. A simple National Rego & Licensing system would be common sense. Different rules in every State is not user friendly.
With the new Carbon Taxes I expect the V8 to be hammered. I am bracing myself for a monster increase in the future. :( GT

Plus all state government's are' Capitol City centric' meaning they couldn't give a toss about regional areas that are being shafted anywhere up to 40c a litre to subsidise our city cousins for cheap days. Our roads are 40 years behind the times and in poor repair. The NSW opposition knows they'll have the easiest run into power simply because the current government is beyond useless. They don't need to offer anything. |
