Historic (Club) Registration

 

If you own a classic mini / mini derivative and are a financial club member, you are able to historically register your car through the club. For many members, this has significant benefits including a substantial saving on car registration.

For club members who also own non-mini classic cars, these can also be historically registered through the club, when a mini / mini derivative is also on historic registration.

This is a (very) simply 2 step process:

 

Step One

We need to have some details about your vehicle so we can complete an MR344 form.

Be ready to provide:

  • Plate number (if the vehicle is currently registered*)
  • Make
  • Type
  • Year
  • Engine number
  • Chassis number
  • Vehicle owners name and drivers licence number (if the vehicle is owned in joint names, provide the details of all owners)
  • Vehicle owners address

This information needs to be given to the Historic Registrar (Neil Turner or Paul Brown).

You will then be issued with a MR344 form.

You can then take this paperwork to Services SA, who will then register your Mini on Conditional Registration (also known as Club or Historic Registration).

*If the vehicle is not currently registered please let us know, and we will leave this field blank when completing the MR344 form

 

Step Two

Come back to the Historic Registrar with your new rego papers from Services SA, along with $5.00, and you will be issued with a log book to record your daily usage details. 

 

For members who don't live locally or are unable to attend club meetings - 

Details of your vehicle, as listed at Step 1 above, can be emailed to Neil Turner or Paul Brown via the club email address - hotbricksminiclub@gmail.com, or use the 'Contact Us' form.

An MR344 form will be completed and mailed to you.

After your vehicle is registered at Services SA, provide a copy of your registration papers to the Historic Registrar with a stamped, self-addressed envelope. You will need to pay for a log book. This can be purchased through the Club Shop (alternatively you can post a $5.00 note). Once the details have been completed in a new log book, it will be posted to you.

 

To enable you to legally drive the car you need;

To be a current financial club member (i.e., have a current paid-up membership)

Have a stamped, in-date log book with the day you're using it filled in.

The car is to be in roadworthy condition.

Have a current valid driver's license.

 

Please note: 

Club Rego entitles you to 90 days (24 hours, 12am to 11.59pm) use per year - (i.e., If you use the car from 5pm Monday and stay out till 1am Tuesday, that is classified as 2 days use).

Log books last for 3 years, but must be stamped each year, and all log books run to the calendar year. Minis at the Mill can be a great time of the year to have your log book re-stamped or reissued.

And yes, we will log book your other eligible cars, right after we do your mini / mini derivative.
