Hey all,

Well I am taking the car down to the mechanics to get him to check out my work and make sure I haven't built myself a death trap!

The car is in Moe, VIC and I am taking it to a respected mini guy in the area. His shop is coincidentally within about 500 metres of my minicave.

I am really tempted to just push it there as the engine isn't running and I don't have a car or trailer to tow with.

My problem lies in the fact that the van is door, bonnet and glass free. Do you think that this would be a problem if the cops happened to roll past? What would be the worst that would happen? Canary?

thanks for your thoughts in advance!

D

As far as i know as long as the mini is regoed and yer pushin not driving it shouldent be a problem unless you get a cop with a chip on his shoulder

more importantly, minicave?

is that like the batcave?

only smaller

BEWARE: no bats ,,, only SOMETHING called LUCAS.

well it resembles a cave in some ways.. filled with old crap.
cold and dark sometimes...

Yep thats what I do when I want legal advise - hop on Ausmini. After Poeee buys his medical degree he will give health advise as well

500 meters - can't your mechanic do house calls ?

I think you would be very unlucky for a copper to see you down that part of Moe floss and besides, I am sure that if you are pushing it, there would not be any problems.

Always helpful advice BIAM
We thought you'd be the one that would buy the medical degree.....well you are the one who needs it most

floss, Just go into the local police station and ask better than getting unhelpful responses from the likes of BIAM as per the norm

I thought about going into the cop shop and asking but thought if they said " no you crazy fool that is the most crazy idea I have ever heard" and I did it anyway I couldn't play dumb and go "ohhh.... really officer, I had no idea that was the case"

Ohh and Poeee, hurry up with that medical degree my arm needs some work. Maybe you could get a psych degree for BIAM as well... he needs some anger management problems

just say it ran out of petrol! and your pushing it to the service station

Main question------ is the car registered------ and if it is, then the worst would just be a canary or ( If you fail the attitude test) what they call, driving a car that fails to comply with the standards for registration, as the car definately would be in this case.
Fine is about $187 and no points.

Don't take the risk, if you have an accident on the way, and if there were injuries the insurance and Cops would have a field day with you Goolies.....

that's often the most important part

what BIAM said is true - don't ask legal questions on ausmini, we're not the law...
