I have similar deal, as I am a contractor with my own Pty Ltd. My company owns the car and I have to pay FBT on it, but if your modifying (oops I meant repairing) you come out in front. Other bonus in WA is multi-nova infringements get sent to company, and you are asked politely to inform them who the driver was. There is no law obligating the company to tell them, so you just ignore it and they go away. I have had two of these I ignored over 2 years back, so no fine/demerits/record that may effect insurance.

interesting very interesting

Holy s4ite!

$2500! and the judge made you prove that your GTS4 has atessa?? WTF ?

What about the police harrasment, physical contact.... did that just get ignored ???:eek:

Just goes to show u "dont fight the cops"

If u actually do manage to win u prolly would have spent enuff hours messing around that u could have worked and just paid the fine easily. If u lose, well thats gonna be real bad.

Joe:Why u trying to dispute the fact that u had wheelspin? when its ure word against a cop who do u think the judge will go for? I thought u were gonna dispute on grounds of harrasment and poor "customer service" and admit that u had wheel spin but that it did not warrant the kind of treatment that u got.

Bet u that when the cops rock up to the hearing they say that u had bald tyres and could easily spin all four wheel and then where will u be? on the back foot, saying "ahhh..... but they were mean to me:("

Good luck to u Joe *fingers crossed*:D

keeping in context of the thread. I am a network administrator.

as for court fee's mine were $38 :D

so i dont see how u can manage $2500 and if you drag it out in court, thats your own choice and thus should be prepared for the costs and time involved.

Eitherway good luck with your venture, but is it worth all the hassle rather than the initial fine/points?

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
