Rego and motor injury insurance

[Aussiebird]

Hi,

We are currently looking online at buying second hand cars and wanted to know if we can look up the rego cost of all makes of cars? 

We have just found some information online about having to pay an additional motor injury insurance, which is compulsory when buying any car? 

Is this right?

Seems buying a car is quite expensive now (WA).

Third party Insurance is included in the your car registration, most drivers would have comprehensive insurance.

You just need rego which is anything from $200 to $300 every 3 months and your ordinary car insurance policy. Rego only covers 3rd party. 

I don't think 2nd hand cars are expensive as such but will be if you're converting back to £.

What year/models are you looking at? The price range is huge. You can pick a cheap run about up for 2-4k, a 10 year old SUV for 8-20 depending on model. 

Buying from dealership always more $$. If buying super cheap I go private seller. Less comebacks but often the warranty is worthless anyway.

In W. A. the registration fee is based on the weight of the car:
