Can you not drive an uns roadworthy car to a mechanics for the purposes of getting work done.

Mate ring local police station and ask. If you don't you won't know. You get out of this a hell if allot cheaper.

f*ck Towies I hate them parasitic f*cking leeches.

Well the ones that stalk accident sites anyway.

never asked the authorities ,but the more I think about it it would be illegal to drive with no tray . but then again my boss bought a truck with no tray fitted to it ,and we drove it around like it for 2 weeks with no problem

In victoria you need an Unregistered Vehicle Permit... I guess there would be similar elsewhere. You do need to contact the roads authority to get one though haha

In Vic you can get temporary permits for unregistered vehicles for that purpose. You'd think something should be available for registered vehicles.

$500 both ways is a lot of money

going to phone the police now and find out

In nsw I remember you can drive an unregistered car to the mechanic to get it slipped.. not sure what the rule is in Queensland. I'd give your car a tow if you were in nsw

Gunna see what the police say and if they are now help QLD roads are the guru.

I would be shocked if you couldn't get a permit.

the police had no idea if it is a offence or not ,they said I would have to phone main roads . bugger I am booked in for 8 am tomorrow

Mate does it have tail lights and mudguards as it is now?

tail light and number plate ,but no mud guards

going to take a gamble ,and I will drive it there ,if the police do not know if I can or not then I might have a good chance I will not get puled over
