bravo 35 Report post Posted May 26, 2009 Yeah me too. One due today, and the others in the next two weeks. Still the current levy is still a bitch if you have 3 cars. Load it onto a yearly licensing fee and fuel tax. Add penalties to drivers that receive serious traffic offences as they are more likely to cause accidents. It's not quite that simple, but that could be the basis for a review. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jamez 2147483647 Report post Posted May 28, 2009 yeah why do you need so many cars.....not like I have 4 e30's at the moment Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bravo 35 Report post Posted May 28, 2009 One for me, one for the missus, and one to tow stuff and play in the mud. Plus company car that I don't have to pay for thank god. Although while I'm playing with the e-dirty and KT is at uni, I'm dailying the MR2. Even worse for those who like to collect old cars. Doesn't mean they're wealthy as we're not talking $50-100k cars necessarily. The old man pays rego on a 1942 Willy's Jeep, a '69 beetle, a 77 datsun cherry, an '86 e30 vert, plus his daily and a ute for carting stuff about. Only the Willy's is on vintage car rego. If it wasn't for both him and mum having company cars, there'd be two more on top of that... It's beside the point anyway. Why levy per vehicle anyway??? If you own more than one you can only drive one at a time... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Driftit 2069 Report post Posted May 28, 2009 (edited) Just get a dealer plate and put all the rego's on hold. case solved Noticed you have a dealers plate. Hope that car of yours is not just on hold. If the car has a NZ registration (expired or not) and you also have a dealers plate on. You are currently driving a car that has two separate registrations. This is fraud. If you get pulled over by a cop who knows what he is doing you will have the plate confiscated and be fined for driving a car with no current reg and wof. And if he thinks you are abusing the dealers plate it will be permanently taken and you will have a sh*t show of getting another one. How do I know this. It all happened to me. Oh and you also have no insurance in this situation. As the fraudulent activity instantly cancels it. Edited May 28, 2009 by driftit Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
