That's why we have such things called Services.... If you do your own service, then you should have enough knowledge to know where an oil leak is coming from. Yes they can spring up at any time, but if you keep your car serviced regularly, then you should be able to note down any oil leaks, even if its very slight. If your not that smart, then you should be taking it to a Mechanic and they should be writing down anything that's wrong with it, including any leaks. Yes it's plain revenue raising, but someone has to keep the cops wages going.
No way around it mate, Suck it up, pay the fine, get the defects cleared, then try not to have anymore illegal mods on your car (ie dark tint)

Yes but he only had the car for 2 hours and didnt realise that it would be defected surely he should have been given a chance to rectify the problem considering the time frame of ownership

In that case he should of taken it to a Mechanics first to have it checked out before buying it, or get the sellers to get a RWC for it, that way if the cops pull you up, you can stick that in their face.
Your from NSW, here in SA we have no RWC. Im gonna try and contest it, no harm in trying.
It says If you think any of the offences where trifiling you can apply to the manager of the expiration notice board for a reivew,
So ill give it a go

A well written letter is the best way to go.
In your objection, explain the whole story about the first two 'officers' whom pulled you over prior to 'Nazi' ******
Mention you have only just purchased the vehicle as well.
Good luck with it. If you word it right, you may well win this one imo.
