On the club permit scheme, it does not work for a regularly driven car, the number of days you can use the car a year are curtailed (60 I think) and you absolutely MUST fill in the logbook every day you drive it. If you are caught without then the fine is for driving unregistered.

Hi Paul, re: club permits, thanks for the clarification. That makes perfect sense. I guess whatever car I end up choosing it will been to have full Vic Rego.
The MX5 wasn't on my radar as I know absolutely nothing about them (had to Google them actually). My family have owned Minis, Mark II Ford Escorts and an LH Torana (ex SEC - State Electricity Commission - company car!). These were the top three I started my list with.
