Hi guys, I read the posting and can not understand why you say that its more flexible.
Stallion wrote earlier ( Hi there, I am from NSW and was thinking how could we implement this great Club Permit Scheme in NSW? , It is more flexible than what we have now.)
Now as I understand it so tell me if I have it incorrect with the details as I only have to follow the NSW rules.
As I see it, With what the Vic roads and South Aust roads is putting up is very restricted and extra money for them. From the facts that I have read and under stand from what I have been told..
In NSW we pay $56 for 12 months, in Vic they pay $45 for 45 days or $90 for 90 day and in South Aust its $150 for 90 day.
Is this correct?
In NSW you can use your car on any club run, to and from the servo for oil or fuel and with a 20cent phone call to the plates register if you want to take it out for repairs or test run. the more outings your club puts on the more you can go out. If you join two clubs you can double that and if you and a few friends wish to drive around Australia for 4 months you can and go into any state on NSW plates, this can not be done on the book system as you are stuck half way around as the 45 day or 90 day would be up.
You can use your car on any tours put on by other clubs if they send an invite to you or your clubs that you belong to....
By my counting you could take your car out as much as you want and still be inside the plate system all for $56.. and some 20cent phone calls.....
Also one other point that I was thinking, if you drive around town for your ninety day then the car can not go out again till the next year and if you take it out to get an inspection for next years rego or a quick trip then it can not be moved as it is unregistered and you would be driving it against the rules.....
