NSW as I recall has different rates under and over 2 ton and city vs country rego rates. But of course you have to get an inspection every year whereas the rest of the country makes do with roadworthies on sale/transfer of ownership. The annual system doesn't work at all btw, it only exists because it once appeased the motor trade. Statistically NSW usually has a slightly HIGHER rate of crashes caused by mechanical defects.

Anyway nothing is happening with teh forester pending teh boss making a decision, which could take centuries. I'm amusing myself shopping for a motorcycle..
From the RMS site..........
