Register of Specialist and Enthusiast Vehicles                                       

The Minister for Transport and Regional Services has entered the following vehicles on the Register of Specialist and Enthusiast Vehicles pursuant to section 21 of the Motor Vehicle Standards Act 1989 and regulation 23 of the Motor Vehicle Standards Regulations 1989 (the regulations).

Each entry has been made according to the eligibility criteria as given in regulation 24 of the regulations.

For an entry to apply to a particular vehicle you wish to import, the vehicle must:

·        be of the Make, Model, Model Code and Vehicle Category specified in Schedule 1 of the entry; or

·        be of an alternative Make and/or Model than specified but determined by the Administrator of Vehicle Standards to be of the same design as described in Schedule 2 of the entry; and

·        have a Build Date within the specified range, where given in Schedule 1 of the entry; and

·        meet all conditions or restrictions specified in Schedule 2 of the entry; and

·        have the same vehicle features as those that met the criteria as detailed in Reasons for Decision.

The reasons for the eligibility of the Make/Model of vehicle are specified in Reasons for Decision, attached to the entry.

Where a vehicle that has been granted an import approval is found not to meet the details or conditions of the Register entry applicable at the time of entry, the Administrator may revoke the import approval and determine that the vehicle be exported or destroyed at the importer’s cost.

The fact that a vehicle is included on the Register of Specialist and Enthusiast Vehicles does not guarantee it will be able to gain approval to be plated. A vehicle may not be able to satisfy specific ADR requirements even though it meets the requirements set out for eligibility on the Register.

Where a vehicle does not match an entry exactly as detailed, or cannot meet a condition or restriction on an entry, a new Register decision can be sought. An application for eligibility is to be submitted to the Administrator. Application forms are available on this website.

From time to time an entry’s status, details, or conditions may change. It is in your interest to regularly check the Register for up to date information. You may download and view an entry by double clicking on an entry number in the Index of the Register.

An entry on this Register, for a vehicle, is likely to be affected when an Identification Plate Approval is granted for supply of the vehicle to the Australian market under full volume procedures. Only those vehicles with a build date prior to the date of first supply in full volume will remain as eligible under the Register - the last permitted build date for eligible vehicles will be shown as ‘Last Build Date’ on the entry.

Entries on the Register will be varied to exclude all vehicles 15 years old or older.

Entries on the Register cover all vehicle models assessed as eligible for entry on the Register of Specialist and Enthusiast Vehicles. Vehicle models that have been assessed as ineligible are not included on the Register but are listed in a Table of Not Eligible Vehicle Models.
