I've put this here as I think it has the best chance of being seen by the guys in Australia....
Background: my 79 series was a Victoria registered car and I bought it in Dec 2017 with 11 months 3 weeks of rego paid for, test certificate on sale etc. I now want to register the vehicle with QLD plates to an address there and have a few questions - these are probably obvious to those of you who live in Oz. The car is in storage in QLD at the moment.
1 - how do I get a refund of the residual VIC rego cost once I've registered the vehicle in QLD?
2 - the Rego forms ask for the registered operators details - is a registered operator the same as the driver(s)? I will want myself and my GF to be able to drive the vehicle - so 2 registered operator details or can I use just my details as the owner?
3 - Third party insurance - it looks like I can buy basic TP insurance when I register my vehicle....is this the best way? As I will get a different registration number it seems to get full insurance BEFORE I re-register my truck in VIC would mean a whole lot of paperwork to be changed (old plates to new plates)
4 - the truck has had a proper GVM upgrade and has been plated in the engine bay (4400kg). Is there anything specific I need to do to make sure that the rego correctly records this fact. I don't actually need this capacity (I'll be under 3500kg) but when I sell the vehicle it would be best for the next purchaser
Thanks in advance
