Interstate vehicles < Get a new rego < Registration < Roads and Maritime Services
1. Does anyone have bank recommendations? I can't really find anything that stands out over the big 4. Thought maybe some of you might have an opinion.
Not much to choose between them.
2. I know I have to eventually buy a car. I do not know the state registration rules. I have training in Melbourne before working at Sydney. Am I better off buying a car in Sydney one weekend and then driving it back to Melbourne to avoid possibly having to change registration states or is Melbourne ok?

In Melbourne it depends on whether you are buying new or used. New no problems. Used from a reputable dealer is ok as they are required by law to provide a roadworthy certificate and will do the registration paperwork for you. Private sale of a used car: some owners will provide the certificate, others won't and you will have to foo the bill. It can get expensive and you'll have to queue at a Vicroads office to register the car. If you buy in Melbourne and then move to Sydney, you will need an inspection to register there. If you buy in Sydney and drive to ML, there is no problem driving in ML for the length of your course.
3. Does anyone know the amount of time between the end of training and arriving at the facility? (Just curious if time to search for a place during that time).
It can be quick of can take longer depending on your circumstances. You'll find out when you get here.
See you in the Academy.
