When building a car in QLD, you must apply for an exemption to the crash testing of the vehicle. This exemption (technically) applies to the owner (builder) of the vehicle and not the vehicle itself. So when it is sold as an ICV (which it is) the new owner should apply for this same exemption. This exemption also has a time frame so even the original owner should re apply for this after n years.

Bear in mind that this information is summarised from my memory following a conversation with Ray around 8 years ago so should be followed up for accuracy as required.

Despite this, I have never heard of either the original owner reapplying for this or any new owners doing the same, even for transfer within QLD.
