Vicroads rego price and payment

[Tom_1569]

Mine costs me around $400 or $450 a year and it's due in January after I have just finished seasonal work so I always have money for it.
And because I'm always living in the country when I it, according to a guy I asked at Vicroads I'm not being dodgy by saying I live there and getting the better rate

Since when do people living in the country get a better rate? We pay exactly the same as if we were to be living on Toorak road.

^^^AFAIK it gets cheaper in different areas. Put a postcode into vicroads website and see. 3280 (mine) seems to be cheaper than most places.

Vicroads

nearly $100 difference between 3280 and 3000. And about 300km more 'country' for 3280.

Edit, tom, you'd pay the same as me. It's well less than metro.

All I know is that 3418 is $200 odd cheaper than 3166 or 3108

Ahh so it is. I never noticed this when changing address' from Sale to Melbourne(Berwick).

Using the calculator, living in Toorak makes it nearly $100 more expensive, registration cost stays the same but "Transports Accident charge" and "Insurance duty" goes up.

you can pay 6 monthly if you want but it costs extra
i recently paid $648 rego on a 4 cylinder
if i had chosen to pay 6 monthly it's $340 another ripoff by the Qld government of more than $30 on people who could afford it the least.

it costs over $800 to register a 6 cylinder here

we probably deserve it for letting a woman run the state into the ground LOL

hahaha we let a woman do it to us in the eighties lol

No one has slammed the guy..... mine was the closest but it was clearly general since the OP didn't specify that he was having trouble paying. Just a wee bit precious!!!

Whos precious,me or the OP?

try 2 cars at $600, prime mover at $7500 a year and b-double trailers at $1600 a year. And all the f**n bicycle rider dont pay a cent AND get their own lane built everywhere with reg money.
