Cost
Hi guys, I plan to buy a bug & pass it to my brother whose living in strathfield, Sydney (he's new in Australia & I'm not based there). Can
someone explain to us what is RWC, Rego & the guidelines to buying a bug in Australia & the cost involved (registration, inspection etc). If
the bug that we plan to get has a new engine (original motor died), what needs to be done? Thx
Regards.

if the car is currently registered then no hassle, walk into the RTA with proof of purchase, $27 transfer fee + stamp duty ($2 for every $100 of the
purchase price I think). If its not you'll need a blue slip (unregistered vehicle safety inspection) not sure what they cost. Maybe $100. You'll
need a RWC more commonly known as pink slip ($38?) green slip http://www.greenslips.com.au/ from $300ish depending on age, driving history.
