Can't get this last clue no matter how I try!
Aussie car owners shouldn't drive without it on call (4)
I have _ E G O and I'm confident about those three letters...
Any help, even suggestions, appreciated, thanks

Pretty sure the answer is rego, but how it parses is a mystery.

Rego, also reggo - Australian registration plate in Chambers; re (on) + go (call, to stake, to bet, to call ... again Chambers)

Thanks Chips, Granama 1 and Ginge, you've solved it to my satisfaction; the word's not in Chambers, but this happens with Mephisto. Thanks again, if I win the prize I'll share the Collins World Atlas with you!

I see now that it's in under 'reggo' but not alphabetically under 'rego' , they don't usually do that, thanks again
