    I have to purchase an unregistered vehicle permit from vicroads. Anyone hate how you have to purchase a separate permit to move it from point A to B and also to get it roadworthied/registered?

    I have to move it from the depot to my home (1 permit) then from my home to the mechanic/vicroads (1 permit). They double dip on the permits, will cost me $100 instead of $50 :/

      I used to get the one month option so I could move it between appointments without repeating the hassle.

        That would be fine if you could use the same permit for moving it from A-B and getting it ready for registration but they want two separate permits for that

        The time frame isn’t too bad, it’s $50 for 1 day but only ~$1 extra per day on top so the upfront cost is frustrating but requiring two permits is the frustrating part because they’re used for the same purpose i.e. full TAC compliance.
