NEW PERMIT APPLICATIONS

VicRoads requires that the PCV authorised signature is entered on the permit application notice. Therefore, your VLCPS application including RWC should be sent to Porsche Club Victoria, P.O. Box 2465, Rowville, Vic, 3178. Enclose with it a stamped envelope addressed back to you for return when signed.

At the time of application you must also send digital photos as per the VicRoads requirements to email clubpermits@pcv.com.au.

A vehicle becomes eligible for Club Permit on the last day of the Build Month when the vehicle is 25 years old. Proof of the Build Month is required if the CPS application is made during the 25th year. See information below for determining the vehicle build date.

Calculating The Vehicle's Manufacture Date

If your vehicle is fitted with an Australian compliance plate, the plate date is the date of manufacture.

If your vehicle is fitted with an import compliance plate or has no compliance plate, the date of manufacture is determined by a manufactures build plate, a chassis number or documentary evidence from the manufacturer’s records 

If your vehicle does not meet either of the above requirements, VicRoads may determine the manufacture date based on information sourced from their registration database, historical data, or evidence from their vehicle safety and compliance expert.

Permit Validity

If you allow your PCV membership to lapse, you will then be driving an unregistered vehicle.

PCV is required to notify VicRoads of anyone with a PCV-auspices Club Permit vehicle who becomes un-financial. If you have a PCV-auspices Club Permit vehicle, it is important that you pay your membership fees or your vehicle becomes unregistered, that is, illegal to operate on the roads.

If an owner has not received their CPS renewal notice within say 2 weeks of expiry then they should take the receipt of their previous payment to a VicRoads office and request that a new renewal notice be generated. VicRoads also need to be advised of any changes of address for CPS vehicles.

It is also a requirement of the scheme that PCV notifies VicRoads of any miss use of CPS Log Books and/or CPS registered vehicles.
