LROCV no longer approve club permits. It's on their website.
Their current attitude to military Landrovers is quite hostile judging by the threads on their forum.
There are many other clubs around who would be happy to put your military Landrover on club plates. VMVC immediately comes to mind.

I did just notice that on their website that's why i was asking if there were alternative LR clubs that approve club permits.

From the 1st October, NSW RMS (Roads and Maritime Services) are introducing a log book trial for people with Historic registered vehicles. This will allow 60 days per year of club free driving.

Details are on the RMS website. It is an "opt in" scheme ie you are not automatically included in the scheme.

I think that you will find that LROCV was only temporarily not processing CPS applications. It was while they were sorting out their rules for the CPS. My understanding is that they are processing vehicles again now.
The LROCV loves any Land Rover whether it be military or not. I am sure that what type of vehicle you have will not have any bearing on the club.

Interesting first post.
I was told I would have to get an expensive VASS engineering report as well as a roadworthy certificate to put a Perentie on a club permit with LROCV. It's not a requirement of Vicroads or any other club, just LROCV.

Up here, one can also use PPQ plates (Personalised) for club or S.I. rego instead of the S.I. plates.
The general public then dont know if you are on S.I. rego or not. Esp now we dont have rego labels.
I dont have anything I would use much anyway as my 1950 (Jumbuck) is on full rego as an everyday drive.

I am not sure who told you that. What would you need a VASS for on a Perentie. I am pretty sure that no Perenties have gone on the CPS with the LROCV since the new rules have come in. If the vehicle is legal and can go on the CPS, the LROCV have no special rules stopping it.

I have to admit that I joined only after reading your comments about the LROCV. I thought that they were unfair and I wanted to correct any such rumours.

Fair point if you think they are unfair, but they are accurate.
Have you seen what is going on on your club forum? Would you care to comment how unfair and dispel rumours over there?
