Step 1. Join a
recognised car club. Be a financial
member for 6 months, do a safety training course and undergo (and pass) a
safety test.
Step 2. At the end of
the six months, find a car that you want.
Ensure that it is a car which has a use at the club of which you are a
member, and which:
a) is
no shorter than 3 metres,
b) is
no wider than 1.2 metres,
c) has
no silencer on the exhaust,
d) has
a fuel tank no larger than 10 litres,
e) has
a manual gear-box (no fully automatics allowed),
f) has
an engine capacity of less than 3.8 litres
g) is
not used by the police or military.
Step 3. Pay the vendor/dealer the full amount, and (for an
additional fee) receive a copy of the serviceability certificate which contains
the VIN number. (Note, you can only
purchase one car in the first six months).
Step 4. Apply to your car club for support of your purchase
of the car, providing all details of the car, and specifying your intended use
within the club’s activities.
Step 5. Ensure that your garage meets the requirements
regarding construction material, and number of locks. Fill in a Statutory Declaration to this fact
and take supporting photographs.
Step 6. Ensure that you have acceptable separate storage for both the fuel and fuel tank.
Step 7. Once you have passed the safety test, have the serviceability certificate and the club support letter, statutory declaration and photographs fill in the online form. Detail your medical and mental health, genuine need for owning the car, intended use, and other miscellaneous information.
Step 6. Ensure that you have acceptable separate storage for both the fuel and fuel tank.
Step 7. Once you have passed the safety test, have the serviceability certificate and the club support letter, statutory declaration and photographs fill in the online form. Detail your medical and mental health, genuine need for owning the car, intended use, and other miscellaneous information.
Step 8. Print out the
completed form.
Step 9. Sign the form
and take the signed form, supporting documentation and photographs along with
100 points of ID to a participating Post Office.
Step 10. Hand form,
supporting documentation, $246.30 and ID to the Post
Office worker (after waiting in Post Office queue). Wait while they take your
photograph and lodge the form.
Step 11. Wait approximately
6 – 12 weeks for the paperwork to be processed and a letter, your licence and your "extract of licence" card to
be sent to you.
Step 12. Take the
licence to the seller (with the receipt) and collect your car.
Being sure to drive it directly home.
Remember cars can only be driven between your place and an
approved club activity; your place and the police station and your place and
mechanic.
At all other times they must
remain in the locked garage that no one else but you has access to, with the
fuel tank, and fuel stored separately.

Now do one about buying a gun in WA (based on the system for buying a car).
Lol Sendarius - isn't that just "here take my money"?
Dont forget that in order to buy off road tires you have to find a farmer that will let you drive offroad. ( your recent rifle in mind here )
Yep FarmDad. I decide to limit this specifically to handguns rather than try and incorporate all the insanity in one post!
Ah yes... the horror story...
Jim - yep :(
Thanks for the linkback.
It's amazing how many people hate hearing the truth and will deny it. Get any hatemail yet?
