Pretty much the same thing here in Norway. Cars newer than 4 years are 
exempt from the inspection, also cars older than 1960, as those are 
rarely in daily use anyways. Other than that, we have a bi-annual 
inspection, where the safety and environment aspects are controlled. 
Brakes, steering, wheel bearings, exhaust, oil leaks, lights, tires etc 
are tested. Cost is between $35 and $55 depending on the shop that test 
it. Also the DMV carries out the tests, and they also have the power to 
withdraw your license plates if your car is not roadworthy.
