Hi Dave, have you tried out the Green Slip Cost Comparison site. Here it is http://www.greenslips.com.au/

I did that and found QBE was the only one who didnt care if you were insured or not. I got the green slip for $440.
With the rego fee the car cost $838 to put on the road.
Thats just madness.
Anyway I drove my Impala to Mascot for work today. The car ran crap. Thats what happens when they sit around.
Im taking my daughter and the Vette to Culburra (near Nowra) tommorow for a run. Hopefully it will run better.

Italy is a basket case: some 50 governments in 50 years.
And don't get me started about France.
The NSW government is the walking dead waiting for an election to bury them. They silently ramped up a slew of RTA charges outside the budget process by gazetting them.

Ive been to both countries a few times and what I like is the mess they are in. Im generalising here but where can you have a head of govt (Italian) who can screw around and knowbody cares or for that fact refuses to step down even when he is voted out of govt and somehow manages to stay as the head. And have you seen the French presidents wife half his age and hotter than hell.
Driving in either country is like being at the speedway and everyone just does what they like.
Graham Im sure you have a better series of reasons why these countries are buggered but the people there have the final say not the people that run them.

Now I see where your system is at I think I will stop complaining about $650 for rego AND CTP

Ive got a feeling Im going to lose my licence again.
Today the fires came within 10feet of my house.
After being called by my neighbours I decided I had to ignore the Police road blocks and just drive on through.
The Hwy Patrol chased me the few ks to my property. I refused to stop. When I got to my place the female copper roughed me up a bit (what a turn on).
She took my licence and gave me a mouth full. My only response was to tell them to go away and come back when we get the fires out.
Now I just have to wait and see what happens.
The only upside to all this is my old Dodge truck can outrun a commodore Patrol car :drag:
gtc:
Your property crossed my mind when I heard about those western Sydney fires.
I hope all is OK. They reckon we're in for a lot more of it this summer.
Tell the cops you thought they were giving you an escort to the scene of the fire.
Oh, and paint the truck red and put flashing lights on it .
