My r33 gtst is the first car i bought myself. My problem is christmass and new years are expensive times. I shouldnt have bought a car on the 14th of january 2008. because on the 14th of january 2009 insurance, pink, green slip, rego all has to be paid right after the hollidays lol.

just some advice to somebody who is wanting to buy a car at this time of year, DONT!!!

Yep I will vouch for that. My daily driver rego runs out on the 19th of Jan.. But we dont get any extra time to do the whole thing. I got my rego renewal the day before Christmas ( thanx santa-Fat C#nt ! ) and most places are shut until early jan. So now I gotta rush around like a maniac chasing down Pink slip etc....Pain in the Ass....And what the hell is it with the prices of Greenslips these days?Bastards just dont know how to go easy on the public

Did you buy in with no rego and register it on the 14th of January last year?

Trying to follow the fact you bought a car the same day rego was due?

It sounds like a pain in ass to register a car in NSW...

In the ACT we just pay one lump sum every year that includes rego and CTP and we dont have compulsary inspections either, once the car has passed its first inspection as long as you dont get defected and you dont let the rego run out for more than 12 months you dont ever have to have it inspected again.

I guess we have a pretty good deal going down here :P

Yes... my cousin drove around in a Subaru DL wagon, and the only reason why it was deemed "roadworthy" was because of that rule. I tell you now, having a manual switch to turn on and off the reverse lights because the signal from the gearbox doesn't work is really good for scaring people at traffic lights :)
