anyone have an idea how to get it home without a trailer

[TVR-190]

you would need a driving permit for each state you go through, also would need insurance on the car.

[sycvs]

if its safe to drive on vic roads then its ok does not have to be rw but brakes seat belts all lights windscreen and windows must work be visiable and you need vic permit and must drive the most direct route to its garage/yard

Keep in mind
Buy the time you pay the permit,petrol cost,hassle of getting there?
Its a cheaper option to call carways in canberra or nsw to bring it down for you.I bought a prelude last year and it cost $265 they picked it up from the door of the sellers house and dropped it off to their altona depot in melbourne.There are a few more depots in melbourne,might be one closer to your place.
Also it clearly states engineer requires 10mm plates to be welded on underbody??
Obviously the cars chasis strength is an issue.
Id say dont risk driving it and get a car carrier to pick it up.
Sometimes the shortcuts could be more costly in the end,Also whats to say the car drives smooth and is reliable on a 8 hour trip on a freeway?
I believe you should have a rethink on the drive back issue and good luck with it,If you end up buying it no doubt it will be a unique car.

UVPs are valid in all States and Territories except Western Australia

I would get one from NSW RTA and then go to NSW and get it. You don't need a VIC permit. According to RTA NSW.

Also VICROADS state that you don't need a VICROADS permit if you start your journey in another state and finish in Victoria.

thanks guys but i aint buying it now cheers for all your help

i know u not buying it, but for a tip.. i had to pay 65 dollars just to drive a car about 100m down the road.. just think of the costs as said above..

You can get a permit from either where youre taking the car to or where youre going I believe. But its only valid until you get there. As I got a permit from ACT to Sydney before and got antoher permit in ACT to pick a car up from newcastle
