I took the Jetta to Steve before I went away. He reckons engine is good but pinging and running on 3 cylinders. He has been fixing another car so it is still there. Between us we will get it perfect. Goes pretty good at the moment, just wont start when cold. Soon my friend, thanks for your patience.

Yup the muff was great. A very comfortable stay with Brackie. Thanks mate, and plans begun for a forum revamp. You will like.

Rego is the same for every car rednut. $460ish for greenslip, rta fees $250 and pinkslip $30. $750 for the year. If you are old, or have discounts its cheaper

CUT REGISTRATION COSTS are available if you shop and think laterally.
The $500 Red Golf of mine cost about $400 for rego AND 3rd party PROPERTY insurance.

things to do: find a friend who is a pensioner and has no car registered to them, they can get big discounts on the rego for you, and rta's can have a different postal address so tickets come straight to you. A person who is a blind pensioner can own and register a car, it's different to having a licence. a 5 year old can 'own' a car. [though rego i'm not sure]
Live in the country a country address makes your insurance el-cheapo. Of course you could move back after paying, not everyone can live there forever, a day in the country is quite refreshing. of course postal re-direction lasts 12 months and is free for pensioners(see above)
If you buy comprehensive at the same time as compulsory the compulsory is cheaper, if you decide later you can't afford comprehensive, you of course keep the [cheap] greenslip, and pay a fee so small for cancelling it's sometimes less than the big saving on the greenslip.

Good work Edison. I am in the first of the country postcodes and rego is 100s cheaper than sydney. I like the postal redirection scheme, it very true. And John Howard doesnt need our dollars for his warchest.

I have to say having been on a lovely vacation to the sunny gold coast for two weeks I'm not overly impressed with how far this thread has progressed

[Golf Loon]
