gas tank rebate

[pillzor]

does the govt still do that and how new does the car have too be.

[5ltvsstaty]

G'day yeah the rebate is still on but it has dropped to $1750 it doesn't matter bout the age of the vehicle only difference is if you order a new vehicle with dedicated/ duel fuel then i think you only get $1000 back

[HamaTime™]

Rebate is still $2000.

Age of the car doesn't matter. As long as it is second hand not off the factory floor (in which case rebate would be $1000) then you get the $2000 rebate.

[azzfox]

Its been reduced to $1750

The rebate for post-factory conversions to LPG fuel systems will be cut from $2000 to $1750 on July 1 this year. It will be lowered further to $1250 on July 1, 2011, and then to $1000 the next year.

The rebate for factory-fitted LPG systems will remain unchanged at $2000 for privately owned new cars.

so how does it work, i got pay with my own cash then the govt gives it back or something?

[pjdm1980]

You pay up front then give the gov the paper work (reg papers has to be registered, receipt for gas install and a license) as long as you haven't done one in the last 6 months you should get your rebate in 1-6 weeks i got mine in 2 weeks of doing paper work.

there goes that idea, havent got money upfront lol

[damageinc.]

Im pretty sure ezy gas are taking 250 off the price of a conversion (making the conversion the same end price as before the reduction in the rebate)

Hey if my car is registered in victoria and I get the gas conversion done in Sydney, will I still get the gov rebate??

yes you still can, and as far as getting a big company like eg e****s, i would STAY CLEAR AWAY FROM COMPANYS LIKE THEM, just think about production line work and dealerships

so whats the best gas tank 2 get n how much is it?

[BT1-355]

The best gas tank, would be APA. 2 reason: number 1 AUSTRALIAN MADE (need i say more) number 2 there workmanship is number 1, unlike most imported gas tank from overseas (dont let me start, cuz i will NEVER STOP). SO i wouldn't think twice about anyother company beside APA
