Mrs M

Can anyone help my rego is about to expire and I was wondering how much I would be looking at paying for a year.

I have a Holden Barina, 1.6 in Mango Hills, not sure is the address has any bearning on the cost. I have fully comprehensive insurance with the RACQ.

Any information would be gratefully received.

Thank you

Mrs M

Rego on our 4 cylinder vehicles was about 630 ish, that was in february, it was quite a bit up on last year.

Mrs M

Thank you for replying

Do you mine me asking what was it last year?

Do you have a choice with who you go with or is this a payment straight to the government?

Kind Regards

It's a payment straight to the government, so you pay them through the Queensland Dept of Transport and Main Roads. If you haven't had one already, you should get a letter shortly saying how much the rego will be for a year. Or if you ring them up and give them the registration number then they will be able to tell you how much it will be.

You will probably pay:
$262.45 Registration fee
plus
$ 45.80 Traffic improvement fee
plus
$347.00 CTP insurance premium


Mine went up 20% from last year

$262.45, it's pretty cheap, eh? [ignoring the usual 'stealth taxes']

ABCDiamond

It depends what you compare it against.

You have to add all three costs here; Rego, CTP and full insurance, and compare the total against full Insurance and Car Tax in the UK, to get a better idea.

If the $600 odd is too much to pay at the moment you can always do it in six month blocks, get whacked with a surcharge of course but that's what First Born is going to have to do this year.

I think they are pretty even.

Our UK car 1.9L MPV > 12mths road tax abt. £200 + insurance £350 (fully comp inc. windscreen cover)

Our Oz car 4L Sedan > 12mths rego abt. $750 + insurance $420 (fully comp inc windscreen cover)

Mrs M

Thank you so much for your replys everyone, so far I have not received a letter so I will give them a ring tomorrow

Kind Regards

Mrs M
