Got another yearly rego renewal paper for the defender.
I noticed some of the info is incorrect.
Engine capacity is 2402CC (ie tdci 2.4) on the paperwork, vehicle is actually the 2.2l
It also states it's a 2 seater.
Now I've taken out the rear 2 seats, but it is designed to be a 4 seater. Not sure what to do here...
Is anyone aware of any issues with this (NSW specific info if it matters).

Yup same with my Puma, 2012 and a 2.2 but the NSW rego says 2402 cc Seating is correct at 4. Apparently a know issue at the RMS.

You need to be careful in NSW when you get a rego check done if you have removed the seats. Even if it is plated for 4 if you only have two in I have heard that some mech will mark this when they do the check and it has an impact. It seems to be because they can't check that the seats are in operable condition etc.

I thought, that the critical thing as to leave the seat belts in, but its only a thought

Happens all the time with Qld Transport, you need to keep a check on the details on the renewal papers , quite often the wrong engine or chassis no's will be incorrect then you need to take the vehicle in for a siteing before they will correct it. [bigsad]

This year is the first year the vehicle will need a pink slip inspection before rego, and going back thru the previous year's rego papers, it seems this info has been incorrect since I've owned the vehicle.
Engine size shouldn't matter (vehicle tax is calculated on tare vehicle mass), but it is still an oversight nonetheless.
