G'day I need to get a RWC inspection done on my fiesta to change it into my name from another family members..
Cheapest I have been quoted is $150 from the local Ford dealer (Echuca) what is everyone else paying and does anyone know somewhere cheaper to get it done? Cheers Steve |

Most testers are now asking between $150 and $200 in my area due to the extra work they have to do etc since the new rules were introduced

Mine cost $180 for a V8 'mont back in November. It varies depending on engine size I think and it's all the extra work the tester has to do now due to the new rules that has pushed the price up so dramatically.
