High Powered Vehicle Exemption for Mini Cooper S

Hello,

So about a year ago i managed to buy a 2003 mini cooper s, everything was all good and well until someone asked me if it was legal to drive and i was all like "yeah, i checked the SA rules and it said approved on car sales" (from which i bought the car here is a link to the same make www.carsales.com.au/private/details/MINI-hatch-2002/SSE-AD-4432974/?Cr=3). they then said that that 130 kw rule only applys to cars after 2010 and said that the rules before 2010 are no super or turbo chargers. later i researched the statement that he made and it was true. trying to not worry ab out it too much after approximately a year after i knew this i got my p's which brings me here. so for those that don't know the 2003 Mini Cooper S is a Supercharged car that outputs 120kw or around 105kw per tonne making it very much under the limit if it were to be applied to the after 2010 rules. in my family all the cars are "high powered" with the exeption of my brothers car a ford fiesta. even if i wanted to drive this he wouldn't want me to, its not insured under my name and he uses it for work every day, also not to mention he is also still on his p's.both my car and his car is under our mothers name as we did not have the full money to pay for the cars. So i have written an exemption form before and sent it off to the rego but in the exemption form i didn't state that my brothers car was used every day and was unavailable to me so that one was denied. I have now written another one (this will be attached) can you guys tell me how likely i would be to get this approved

Kind Regards,

Dylan

      No. I think it's gone. 😭 I think you can get body coloured ones on eBay so I think I'll get one of those... Or just hang a red ribbon from the hole and whack a TOW sticker next to it.

      Cleaning my wheels 😍

      Can't say I've had a bad experience with one on my car, then again it only gets washed once or twice a year... The wheels on the other hand, get a good spray often due to my shitty dusty pads.

      @MBS206 thats pretty neat and tidy to me!  I'll get a photo of mine when I'm out there next. It might require multiple photos to understand the scale of the atrocities though... In total I have 4 sheds of varying sizes and layouts. Main shed is 14x8, second shed is 3x8, third shed is 11x2.5, fourth shed is around 6x4.  All are pretty much full.   The main goal of my cleaning tsunami is to make the main shed predominantly car and motorbikes only. Second shed is my metal fab room (2 x bench grinders, drill press, bench belt sander, metal band saw, scrap metal storage and some of my garden tools.  3rd shed is more bigger garden stuff, storage for engine crane, jack stands, concrete grinder, concrete mixer, air compressor lives there, and it now has two 2mx2m pallet racking shelves with itemised boxes holding building stuff, electrical stuff, plumbing stuff, etc, etc.  The 4th shed is Ryobi electric ride on mower, mini boom sprayer, ancient Kubota tractor, more garden stuff!  I have got a lot of shit....  Then there's the pool house (8mx4m) and the pool pump shed (4mx4m).  I built all of the sheds over the 11 years we've been here.  The main shed was a Ranbuild kit, the rest are all custom made to fit the areas available. Building the main shed taught me a LOT as I had no idea about building anything prior to that!  I've still got one more in me. It will be my man cave which I poured the extra concrete for way back when I poured the concrete for the main shed. The idea is the Skyline will be a centre piece of the main cave once (if...) it's finished.  I told my now 14 year old son yesterday that I will 100% drive him to his year 10 formal in 2 years. Still a long way off but at least I now have a date to work towards! 🤣

      Modern oils are amazing. Add tyres to that as well.

      Probably a smart choice to buy one vs build, purely for the motivation part as you said! Imagine the metal dust everywhere from grinding all the steel to build one. Ha ha ha!   Also, post a photo of your garage.   Mine is below, this is where I've been cleaning and have already half filled a caged 6*4 trailer. And this is after my cleaning expedition mentioned previously... The middle normally has a car in it, but I'm dumping things in the middle as I sort through them. And poor skyline was dusty and has had the lightest few drops of rain and now it looks atrocious and needs to be dragged back out and washed thoroughly! And yes to the right is technically another bay, you really can only see 2 bays out of 3 in this picture.
