I also renewed my NSW rego just before leaving because of the carnet thing.
Shipped the troopie to Cape Town and heading north to UK, we've got as far as Kenya now without being asked for proof of rego once.
Got the COMESA yellow card insurance in Zim even without proof of rego.
Maybe it's a different story getting green card insurance for Europe though?
If anyone has any info on this I'd appreciate it, as my rego will run out before I get to Europe, and I'd rather not spend another however many hundred dollars on a piece of paper I don't need.
Pumbaa, did you have a particular contact person at the RTA to tee things up with in advance? I imagine it would be hard work walking in to an office and getting them to accept an overseas pink slip.
There's also this thread from last year with some info on this issue
Cheers,
Paul
