Incorrect Vehicle Year On Rms (And Ctp)

[Lolrick]

Hi guys, I've just gone to renew my car for the first time since purchased and I noticed that the vehicle is registered and green-slipped as a 2008 model. (2008 was the compliance year for importing, 2003 was the build year)

I have had a similar issue previously with my locally built Mitsubishi 380 - some genius managed to register it as an LPG vehicle so when my first pink slip inspection came up, I had to pay out of my pocket for a blue slip and RMS fees to have it changed to just petrol.

Has anyone had to update vehicle details before with the RMS? I would like to avoid having to arrange and pay for a blue slip, and RMS fees make me seethe and i refuse to give them more money than absolutely necessary.

However, I am unsure if this will lead to an insurance liability? Other than the year being incorrect, vehicle description is OK and insurance premium doesn't seem to change

Cheers!

Don't worry about it, it happens all the time cause they go off the compliance date, so just register it

Awesome, that's exactly what I wanted to hear. Cheers Brett

Otherwise it's like $30 for an update of details to correct the year model
