i need help finding a car club. my vl turbo gets driven once a week. so paying $700 buks a year for rego is a waste. so im thinking of joining a car club. all i know is it cost $120 a year for club permit plates and u can drive ur car 90 days a year. any ideas ???? feedback appreciated.

I'll give you the hot tip. If you approach any car club seeking club reg to save money you more than likely won't be offered membership. Most clubs have a waiting period and then a minimum cruise requirement to be elegible for the permit too.

Yes you have to be part of a club first, usually there is a waiting period, some may say you must attend 10 meetings first etc etc you must also attend a certain amount of club runs (with your club) per year to be apart of the club... There will be heaps around your area so just google it...

Nope. Clubs dont just hand out plates. You have to be a paying member, attend cruises and be responsible. If you get caught mucking around they won't renew you.

I had know idea how tough it is, but I guess they would have to be. All in all I've been considering club reg aswell caus $700 a yr on some of my cars I hardly ever drive really isn't worth it.
