Hey guys,

I'm looking at buying a car for my little brother as his birthday is around the corner (nothing flashy just A to B) and i'm not sure what is the legal age to register a car in VIC. I pretty sure its 17 plus but i couldn't find anything on VIC ROADS.

Does anyone have the facts behind this?

Requirements to register a light vehicle

The registration requirements for a light vehicle are:

* you must be over 17 years of age to register a car or truck or 17 years and 9 months of age for a motorcycle or motor trike

* you can only register a vehicle in the name of a person or incorporated body (see: Who can register a vehicle)

* you must attend an appointment at VicRoads

* you may need to attend a vehicle inspection at VicRoads (if the vehicle has previously been registered in your name and the vehicle details have not changed, you do not need to attend a vehicle inspection)

* you must pay registration and number plate fees.

Make an appointment

To make a registration appointment:

* call us on 13 11 71 (Visa or MasterCard payments only)

* visit a VicRoads Customer Service Centre (cash, cheque, EFTPOS, Visa or MasterCard)

When making an appointment you will need to tell us the:

* vehicle identification number (VIN)

* engine number

* registration plate number (if applicable)

The appointment and vehicle inspection

The safest way to legally drive an unregistered vehicle to your appointment is with an Unregistered Vehicle Permit (UVP).

What to bring to the appointment

* the vehicle (if an inspection is required)

* evidence of identity

* evidence of ownership (contract of sale/receipt showing the VIN; engine number; name, address and signature of previous owner; name and address of the new owner). A transfer of registration document is not accepted.

* a current Certificate of Roadworthiness

* if someone else is attending the appointment on your behalf, they will need a signed letter of authority from you that quotes your Victorian licence number.

      Who has a Infiniti Q60, Q50 (V37)?

      Yep, it was only an option on the Q50 Hybrid.  Same in Japan as far as I know. And doesn't use a centre diff like the Suby's do, so not the same as the WRX.  But it also isn't a reactive AWD like other Nissan AWD vehicles are, eg. Murano/Xtrail/etc.

      You should have got a Maine Coone then. Only thing is they're big. But so cool, and just like a dog. Or, just get yourself a high performance dog. That'll teach you for wanting Parkour indoors 😛

      Are you thinking of Bens R32? I don't remember if his went through the bonnet itself, but it went through the chassis rail. Brad (RISKIN) bought it, and turned it into a track car. It's funny how anti people are of Jim Berry now. I remember when I pulled mine out (during an engine change) and inspected it and found it cracking badly. At that point in time so many people were even on SAU, were so pro Jim Berry, and that was after Bens GTR exploded his quite publically.

      That's one of the reasons I got that breed, they look weird, the other reasons are they small, they are very vocal, and run around like they are on crack, I didn't want a breed that just sits around, these two are like kids on red cordial  My daughter has one, and it's a laugh riot, constantly doing Parkour around the house, sits on her shoulder, plays catch, and constantly runs around the house taking turns chasing the dog around, her Bermese though, just lays around with constant bitch face, and just looks on in utter disgust at the cat and dog playing together

      I'm getting PTSD flashbacks seeing that name again.  With my turbo swift, I got 1,500km of street use on a Jim Berry clutch before it exploded and took out my input shaft with it.
