Club plates ?
Club plates ?
Just received my annual VicRoads rego...$597.70. I bought my Brumby 7 years ago next week, and have done a little over 40,000km in that time (from 159xxx to 201xxx). I think the first year it was sub $400 (certainly cheaper than the 4 door car in the same household).
So, I'm looking at club plates as an option. I saw a Toyota Corona and a Mazda something junk last weekend with club plates. If KE70 Corolla's can have them then I think the Brumby should be a shoe-in.
To get club plates obviously you need to belong to a club. Does anybody know of a suitable club (can be a generic Japanese car club, I don't think the Subaru club in Vic offers it as they are more tuned towards events where people go offroading)...

There are more subie clubs than just the 4x4 subaru club of vic.
Most clubs will require the car to pass a roadworthy before giving the ok, and will possibly say no if you are joining just to get on club plates.
Once you have the ok say hello $100 rego and 90 days of the year to drive (almost every weekend of the year). Not really allowed to drive the car to work though as one of the restrictions.

Club rego restrictions are much better these days.

As long as your car is 25 years old or more.

L serious, still.
I know the reg's, a colleague at work has several Holden's on club plates (mostly 70s). The rules have changed quite a bit since the old days of "only on club trips".
The problem I have found is some clubs want 30 years or more, and the Brumby is at 24. So if I find a club in the next 6 months that accepts at 25 years (which is the VicRoads requirement) this can be my last year of paying full rego on the Brumby, which is really only a weekend vehicle (very occasionally work), or when travelling interstate...

Where are you located suburb-wise ? I'm outer eastern Melbourne...30km from city centre.

Would that mean if someone bought B00's ute, transfered ownership to an urban Victorian address, the Vicroads would hit buyer up for the difference in costs with a pro rata efect - like what happens if a non pensioner buys a pensioners car with a years rego - able bodied non pensioners get hit up with the difference !
