Just got greenslip through gone up by $47 rang and asked why and it is life time cover if injured and not just for kids hit on crossings as advertised on radio and tv. Will show on your green slip as MCIS Levies*
*Medical Care Injury
Services Levies. The levies fund
ambulance, hospital, lifetime care and other
services for people injured on motor vehicle accidents. These levies are GST exepmt. MMMMM is this a good thing or not sounds ok to me I suppose if god forbid any of us are injured and require full time care. I bet there is a catch some where certain amount per week possibly I dont know. Dont know what every one else thinks ????. Regards Steve M

Yeah I live outside of
Sydney now too - in Rockingham, WA - and I am paying less than half now to register my Cruiser in WA than I did in NSW.
Here you put your car over the pits once to register it and from then on you recieve your rego in the mail and you pay it.
No more pink slips - save at least $25 (or what ever they were)
No more green slips - save 100s of $
CTP is all included in the rego - and you get the same coverage as someone in NSW.

And nobody saying "oh here's a bit of rust, can't pass that. Go down to by bro's panel beating service and come back."
I miss the NSW system like I miss a toothache!

Gerry,
Mine was about the same - it is due about April. Still better than what I was looking at in NSW, from memory it was $25 for pink slip, about $300 for rego and the greenslip (with a NRMA discount) was around the $680 - total $1025!!.

Yeah, the older the car the more for the greenslip if I recall correctly. Also the cost of a WA Drivers Licence for 5 yrs is roughly the same as 1 yr NSW.

Ah
well, this state more than makes up for the lower rego revenue by charging a fortune for stamp duty - lol!!

Rego In NSW is now a lot cheaper than before.
My latest in September 2006 was $383 for rego of my 93 Range Rover and $287 for CTP.total $670.
Qld is much more expensive for a Range Rover at about $1k if I recall.
Competition has bought the green slip down.
I have never had to have rectification fora "pink"(inspection) slip( which is needed for cars over 4 years old) and I applaud the inspection system after seeing some of the Sh1tboxes on the road in Qld.

You gotta love this country...
When are we going to get a government that will bite the bullet , and make all taxes, levies, licences, charges and rip-offs consistent across the states.
The states managed to completely screw up the national Road Rules attempt and have instantly started to foul up that piece of good work.
What is is
about us Aussies that we put up with all this cr*p ???
