Hey ppl,

I am headin over to NSW on wed to pick up my new car (providing its all good) which is a r31 GTS 2.

Anyway my question is do i need to change it in my name over there, or does both him and me have to sign the rear of the rego papers, then it jsut changes over when i take it over the pits down here??

Easiest way is to draw up a letter of sale, with both your full names on it, and witnesses preferred, stating date, time, price etc at time of changeover. That way there is written proof if speeding tickets happen on the way back down, or earlier that morning (to cover both of you!), plus it also acts as a recipt for Service Tas when you go to register it down here. Where in Tassie are you? As long as the car is in good nick, just take it to a servo who does inspections, pay your $50, then take the paperwork to Service Tas, pay your money and get your plates.

Also, get insurance for the car now. Tell them when you are picking it up, and as much info as you have on the car. They will cover you and give you a couple of weeks to make the first payment. Well, Shannon's do!

I've brought two cars from the mainland, both this way, and apart from dickhead sellers, never had a problem with the process I've just described.

Hope it helps.

Cheers, Greg.

Where in Hobart are you??

Look in the Tassie section of BoostCruising. There was a thread about this about 3 weeks ago with lots of suggestions. I know it's Boost but there is some good info on there.....sometimes!

Cheers, Greg.

U dont need to put the car over the pits down here as long as it is regoed up there and i think maybe needs that rwc thing too.

There is like an $8 change over fee.

No offence but you're on drugs!

Have you registered a car from the mainland down here? I have twice so unless the rules have changed somewhat in the last 2 months....

Meh, I don't do the whole MSN thing. Have better ways to waste my time!

If you think you can do it for $8, and can get away with it legally, you deserve a Knighthood!

I think you have miss read what he wrote Greg???

The way i read it he is saying you dont need a to take your car to have a full transport inspection just the RWC which is what our AIS is and can be done at any certified station like already mentioned.

The $8 change over fee i assume is part of what you pay Service Tas along with stamp duty and rego fees etc but i have never heard of that either :/

All in all he has explained the exact samething that you and i have just worded differently :)

It should cost about $50 to get your lights checked and general road worthiness. Then stamp duty on the valve of the car, then rego. I can never remember paying a $8 fee for anything.

I'd just like to see the paperwork saying the rego can be transferred over for $8, which is what was implied first off. If it's true, I've been ripped off twice by Service Tas!

Cheers, Greg.
