Hey guys
as the title states
How long can I not renew my rego before needing to do a full blue slip on my car
The rego is due in July but my car needs fixing before I can re-rego the car, so I wanted to just buy a cheap run around until about december when I can fix the car and renew the rego

cheers

+ fees for new plates because you have to hand in the old ones

Remember a blue slip is a complete safety inspection as i happen to work in a dealership that does the rotten things i have seen our guys fail vehicles for small things (blue globes being the most common) seeing the fine for an inspector is over 5k i don't blame them for failing what is classed as unroadworthy no matter what the owner thinks.. ( i hate the law its double sided and never fair)
so before getting an inspection make sure the vehicle is as close to perfect as possible
