insurance is cheap n is also with shannons

also how far away from a club can you be??
and other info would be sweet

I'm not sure if the club rego rules are different in each state, so I speak for NSW only. Some clubs can put their own rules on it too. Club VW only offers it for unmodified cars. Others dont. I dont think it technically matters how far away from the club you are. But the only times you are allowed to drive your car is to club sanctioned events or for maintenance reasons. If you lived in Melbourne and had a car on club rego with Club VW for example, you'd have to have the details of your local event listed in the ClubVW magazine to allow you to go to it. You'd have to take your magazine with you to point out to cops thats where you are going should you get pulled up. You're also supposed to ring your clubs registrar and let them know when you go out so that they can keep a log. The down side of club plates is that you cant take a sunny sunday drive whenever you want.

Anyone who rorts the rules is putting the whole scheme at risk for everyone else, so dont do it. Not saying thats what you guys we're thinking, thats just my general comment to all readers.

It is not rego in Vic. It is a Permit to drive a club car. So it is for club events only.

and trips to have mechanical issues sorted as well

In NSW it used to be called 'Vintage Rego', but now it is called the 'Historical Conditional Registration Scheme'. It was originally set up by the Council of NSW Motor Clubs, as an agreement between the RTA and the motor club movement. It is for cars 30 years and older, to be used for club events ONLY. The CMC publish information and a set of recommended rules on their webpage, at:

Yes Club Veedub Sydney is a member of the CMC and we abide by the CMC's rules, particularly in regard to modifications (period ONLY). We will also only issue Historic plates to our members who are known and active in our club's activities - people who come to meetings and events, and support the club. It is NOT just a way to get cheap rego.
