What a F*($#@# delema, I can afford one or the other at the moment.
I think the bicycle is the way to go.
Just about to pay my car registration $522.20.
What a F#()@#% rip-off... bloody rediculous if you ask me. My car is costing me way too much, that's why I want/need a bike.
My new 1200MK2 for $750 will have to wait.

| i dont understand :confused: do they make mountain bikes they play records now? :conf: |

No, no record player on this mountain bike.
$800 for registration, that's insane. I know u can get a discount if you have a "health care card" but besides that there's no way around it.
Think I might just sell my car and buy a motorcycle if I really need to get around. |

I feel your pain, mine will be of a similar amount and is also due in the next week. It sucks being a student + casual worker and trying to pay for a car amongst heaps of other :( |

| could be worse, we could live in one of those asian countries which has insanely high prices for anything related to cars and driving them. |

| $800 must be for young driver. I registered a car yesterday, RTA charges were $240, $350 CTP. Then the bastards charged over $1000 to transfer the registration. Stamp duty on cars and houses is a very lazy tax. Public service doesn't do anything to justify the charge, it's just one of the ways to prevent putting up obvious tax levels. and $1700 for insurance hurt a bit too |

That's an expensive car :eek:
And I was whinging about $800 stamp duty on my car :(
But yeah, under 25 = $550 for CTP green slip, then another $220 at the RTA to actually renew the registration :(
And don't forget the $450 montly repayments or the $250 per month comprehensive insurance costs :(
Cars are expensive :nervous: |

| As if the government doesn't get enough revenue from speeding fines these days (dunno about other states but in Vic it was some extraordinary figure) |

Yeah i just paid my 500 on rego.. destitute i now am :mad:
Most of the cash goes to the TAC though, for like if some drunked truckie hits your car and you cant walk again, you get taken care of. which is a good thing i spose.
I'd go mountain bike over decks personally atm ;) |
