It's registration/compensation payment time again.

OMG that's like HK$3566! What's the average wage in Australia again?

And you know someone is going to say "but that includes 3rd party", right?

Are you sure?
I read that as being for either 6 months at $337.20 OR 12 months at $666.10.
Insurance is included in that price (where the * is).

Compulsory third party insurance.
No ACC levy.
1.5% Medicare levy on income.
'free' medical cover.

As did I... but what do I know....

In Singapore, Road tax (their version of Rego.) goes on engine capacity... the bigger the motor, the more you pay...

The 'insurance' listed is 3rd party PERSONAL INJURY not vehicle which means it's much the same as our ACC.

I am in Australia so converted it to NZ$.
I asked if it would be lower with full private vehicle insurance and was told no as it included personal cover in the event.
Work Medicare was NZ$1600.

I am willing to bet this topic has been discussed by NZ parliament at some stage especially regarding third party. (which yes is part of the rego cost here)

" It's cheaper to live in Aussie"

I can not speak for the rest of Australia but the top end is expensive in general due to the location (my DR650 was over NZ$10000) but would be curious to know how things are back home in NZ.
