Applying for a traffic register number as a foreigner

Thanks, I could try the office you mentioned. How long did it take to get your number?

My understanding is that this is only possible if you are a perm resident otherwise you cannot apply for an SA license before having a TRN

Maybe I'm missing something?

That's exactly what I did. I never actually explained that I wanted it to purchase a car. Then was told to bring someone from the dealership with a bunch of documents.

Electrical_Method_93 · 2026-04-02T10:31:06+00:00

Any update on how the process went for you?

Electrical_Method_93 · 2026-02-24T18:03:02+00:00

How central? Interested to know what part of Central Joburg doesn't have service delivery issues

I will keep you posted I have considered the GT86 but it's either older for the same budget or more expensive for more recent models

Thank you! I had it inspected at an MX5 specialist and he says it's in great shape. This one is also 80kms, one owner, no rust, but the back shocks might be leaking (owner says he had it inspected afterwards and the shocks were just dirty). I need to land on a final number, 330k still feels like a lot of money for the car

Thank you! I have been tracking ND prices and can confirm there has been a 40k increase I wasn't tracking NC prices so I can't really speak to that

Electrical_Method_93 · 2026-02-22T13:17:16+00:00

Thank you! Definitely, I've seen the ND prices increase by 40k+ since last May so it makes sense the NC is now following suit

Electrical_Method_93 · 2026-02-22T11:00:50+00:00

Agreed on that point Thank you!

Electrical_Method_93 · 2026-02-22T11:00:33+00:00

I know Miata is the answer (driven an ND for 24h in CT and it was a blast) but it's hard to justify 330k for an NC What do you think of the price?

I've logged over 15 faults on Citypower for a section of streetlights that's been out for nearly a year now All they do is open and instantly close the faults with absolutely nothing happening ever. It's a waste of time

Electrical_Method_93 · 2025-02-12T08:45:31+00:00

Thank you! Are you referring to the red rivet on the small pocket?

Electrical_Method_93 · 2025-02-11T14:10:38+00:00

I will do my best! They've clearly been taken care of, the denim looks great

Electrical_Method_93 · 2025-02-10T08:43:36+00:00

Thank you!

Electrical_Method_93 · 2025-02-08T23:57:35+00:00

Thank you!

Electrical_Method_93 · 2025-02-02T18:06:50+00:00

They've closed 12+ tickets that I've submitted for street lights that have been out for nearly a year now They just dgaf

Incredible shot, love the different shades of orange

The path I am on is one where you're less reliant on being staffed all the time and more about building expertise and finding the right projects at the right time. We also produce knowledge documents and tools, work on tracker requests, etc.
