    Oh ok. Well my rego & CTP (compulsery third party) here in NSW adds up to around $750 with me being under 30. Pink slip another $30 on top of that (with no repairs), so that doesn't seem too much to me. Well it does, but thats what we pay yearly
    CTP should go down to around $250 as well once I'm 30 though (hopefully!) & our CTP prices did go up about $80 a few years ago.

    Full comprehensive car insurance for me is at the cheapest about $1000pa. Mainly coz of my age. Don't have it atm, but trying to afford it soon!

    for our new landcruiser. we will pay 450 rego 150 for my personalised plates, 350 for CTP and 800 for full comp insurance. so whats that all up
    $1700 a year for our car to eb on the road...
    our little daewoo is only 250 a year plus 200 for CTP and 200 for third party insurance so $650 a year so all up we have $2350 a year in rego.
    thats why i sold my bike and hubbies bike as our bikes were only 150 for rego, but 450 for CTP and over 1500 for insurance we had a yearly rego/ insurance bill of almost 6 grand..

    What cylinder is it? Last time I paid my 4 cylinder it was $570 - that was nearly 10 months ago - I am really praying your car is 6 cylinder for that price!
    Qlders are totally ripped off with rego and we still have crappy roads!

    And to think that a year ago, QLD was one of the cheapest states to register a car

    We just got the one for DH's car, and the rego now costs more than the car is insured for (it is a bomb to look at, but great for him to get to/from work)..

    Not looking forward to mine, cause I have an Avalon too..

    That was really obvious when we drove to the NT a few years back. You didn't need one of those 'Welcome to the NT' signs to know you had crossed a state border.

    And it is because of the govt having no money in reserves with the current financial climate. The easiest way to get money is to tax and increase govt revenue with the essential services. If you have a car, you have no choice but to pay it, and the world we live in, we will pay it..

    I am trying to convince DH that we don't need the 2 cars. But he doesn't want to leave me and the kids at home stranded cause there isn't much public transport around. (I can have a decent bus service if I walk 20 mins to the local shopping centre though).

    I hear ya $200 increase on our falcon from last year its a disgrace its not just cars either $23 more for trailers and $90 more for boats when we have 2 cars, 5 trailers and 3 boats it certainly adds up big time, add full insurance on cars, boats and one fo the trailers thats a lot of $$$ for **** roads

    We got our rego just before the prices got increased and DP wanted to pay half yearly but 1. It costs you more and 2. Seeing as the prices were going to increase I wanted to pay the whole year. I'm glad that we did now, just not looking forward to next year.

    We just started 6 month rego's in NSW & when I looked into it, it costs exactly the same. I thought it'd be more for 6 months, but the costs were exactly halved, so come the full year, it was exactly the same price in total. (Exaclty, lol. Sorry)

    we have a 7 seater 97 model chrysler voyager, hubby is the only driver, (i dont drive yet) he is 30, and our rego is due to be paid on friday, and i have no idea where we are getting the money from to do it, especially since it has risen in price, we didnt budget for that.
    We can only afford to do the 6 mths rego atm $415.30, cause hubby is studying, we dont have alot in $$ yet we need the car to get around.

    Must be different in QLD. For a 6 cylinder car in early June it was $369 for 6 months or $706.35 for 12 months. CTP insurance was included in those amounts at $171 or $326
