Good luck with rego. I think your rules are different to NSW. Here if it is out for over three months we have to get what is called a blue slip which is pretty tough.

No worries Cad have been through the NSW system a few times but its the first time i've done it in the ACT

Here i need to take it over the pits at the motor regristry :? but once its rego'd i only go for inspections every 3 years

But they also have mobile inspection stations and you could be pulled in for an inspection at any time or called in to the regristry for a random inspection
its a good idea to keep us honest

Ok the inspection has ben done and it failed

But only on minor things like a rubber grommet missing from the fire wall and some hand brake adjustment isues other than these two thing its all good

Not bad for a van thats been out of rego for more than 5 years
