I just found out I have been driving around in my 2A without rego since May. My mate pointed out the sticker last weekend while camping at Stradie and I have found that not only don't I have a new sticker to put on, I never paid it.
This leads to my biggest fear with the 2A, Safety Certificate Inspection.
I had to bribe and beg to get it passed last time, not that it is bad or unsafe, just old and takes effort to drive.
Most inspectors are scared of old cars in case the authorities do a 'random' inspection on their inspection.
Being realistic, I will be lucky to have it on the road by the end of the year now. Sadly I had been off the road for 3 mths while I rebuilt the drive train, fixed the blown diff and put on Paras and new shocks. It was driving well, the best ever since I got it.

cant you get it to a land rover guy to do the rego

Even if it was last day in may, I am still over the 3 months.

Physically go to transport and plead your case first, not via the phone. Face to face with cash in hand may get you further and save rwc dramas.

Go to a decent landy specialist who deals with series trucks. They know that they leak oil and there is nothing you can do about it. They know that they don't brake as well as a new car. They know that the steering is vague. Most of all, they know that this is normal and ALL of them do it.

And if said Landy specialist is familiar with Series vehicles then you won't have to argue whether seatbelts, windscreen washers, reversing lights etc are compulsorary or not

your chances are way higher with a landy specialist

Hi,
Don't drive it anymore!! I have recently noticed little groups of new, old or indescript cars beside the road roughly in the same places as RBT's are held, each with no plates here in ACT.
I am told that the police check rego during RBT, and pull plates off any found unregistered, and issue a fair sort of fine - unreg & uninsured, possibly unlicensed/suspended and possibly DUI. What a trifecta!
And they have some gadget that can spot unreg cars on the run or in passing and much the same result.
And lots of advertising in the paper about NSW speed/red light cameras detecting rego as well.
Cheers,
Andy
