I'm thinking it's quite cheap. $50 or so . . . I know I could have signed up and ordered it for longer and saved a few bucks.

How much are you paying for insurance? That's where car style, etc. comes into it. I didn't think it had anything to do with car style re: registration.

IN the UK we don't have to pay to register the car as such, we have to pay what is called "Road Tax" or the official name "road fund licence" and for my car, a 2 litre 4 cylinder 16 valve, it costs £90.75 for 6 months or £165 for the full year. If you have a smaller car below 1600cc its cheaper. Insurance is completely seperate.

Registration = $36.00

Insurance per year = $792.00 Full Tort (meaning we can sue for certain injuries that aren't included in Limited Tort and we pay a higher rate...but we pay a lesser deductible if we make a claim).

Inspection = Approx. $42.00 per year unless you live in an area that requires emissions (we don't...at least for now) and then it would be around $65.00...plus any additional monies for repairs on required but non-working or under par functioning parts (lights, tires, cracked windows...etc.).

$38 a year here for registration, but the local excise tax adds another $270 a year. For some reason Indiana is a high risk area, my insurance is $1380 a year. Thats almost double what it was in Los Angelas, who would have guessed.

We register the car (get tags for the plate) every may, and both cars together run us about $100 total, and that's for an 88 Bonneville, and a 91 Cadillac. We need to see about lowering the insurance on the caddy, though, because we don't actually drive it. It hasn't been driven since right after we moved in here.


That was last September.

Have a 88 GMC pickup at $35 per year, a 01 GMC Jimmy at $35 per year and liability insurance on both is $65 per month. Pickups are cheaper than cars or vans.

In New Hampshire, it's a sliding scale based on the model year and value of the car (it pays to drive a clunker). Least expensive is around USD 65.00. It's that way in California too.
