Vic Compliance:: Where?

[inark]

Ive had a quick search through google for Mercedes Compliance shops and cant really find any info...

My cousin has been driving around a pretty rare (Merc dealer told him there are only about 11 of them in the country according to the Mercedes DB) 190E AMG Cosworth. Hes just bought a Dodge Charger and wants to offload it... it doesnt have a compliance plate and was imported years ago from Honkers.

Hes selling it for 5k to my Aunty and Uncle and they want to get it road registered as its an awesome little car... can any compliance joint do it? or will it have to go to a specialised merc compliancor? Is the process any different from jap imports

when i bought my r32 gtst back in the day, i bought it from a place in chadstone called "Chapmans" near the corner of warrigal rd and dandenong rd, the actual workshop was in a side st called Neerim rd, he was an importer/mechanic/car salesman, i didn't have the best experience's with him on a personal level so just beware, i thnk the main reason was i was fairly young at the time.

anyway, he had heaps of mercs in the place, and as it was a compliance centre i doubt all of them were aus delivered.

i havent been passed for quite some time and i don't even know if their still operating, however you could try and get the number and give them a call, he should be able to answer your question.

Well it looks to be a pre-88 car, so any compliancer should be able do it. Not sure how you go with the various approval docs you might need.

Drools! One very very nice vehicle. Took my brother to see one of these back in the UK. Only seen one here and that was parked on Burke Rd, Camberwell a couple of years back with the plate CSWTH I think.

Oh and in answer to the ques, I think it has to be a certifed complier to ensure everything is done correctly and within the law but could be wrong.

hmmmmmmmm papers could be an issue lol

it was imported years back... its a hot car... champagne metalic... 17s... sports suspension... leather (recaros i think) interior... white dials... cosworth engine (not the turbo model.... wish... i would buy if it was as he wants 5k for it)... skirts and front and rear lip... i'll get some pics and put them up. (everything is factory)

will have to look into the whole import papers thing.

Bah - the Evo 2 was where it was at.

Saw one in Switzerland once - oh the memories...

Best time in the summer to go, August. Was there a few years back and it is amazing. To swim in an open air pool in 30 degree sunshine yet see snow on the mountains above you. Superb memories.
