CLUB REGO

Both Historic Vehicle (HVS) and Classic Vehicle Scheme (CVS) rego are available through our club for current members and their vehicles. Below is an overview of the differences between each scheme and how each scheme applies to our club.
Each of these schemes offered via our club are a privilege for our members. If any member is found to be abusing this privilege in any way (eg, but not limited to: Not adhering to the conditions of registration, falsifying records, changes being made to the vehicle that would exclude the vehicle from being eligible for the scheme) the scheme may not be offered to that member by decision of the club committee.
