No Import Sticker/plate/? What To Do?

[GoodOldR32]

Hi all, ive recently bought a R32 and when i went to get a roady they said it didnt have a import plate, all it has is the blue plate from factory and 2 mod plates, the car is registered and has been since 2007, but 1 of the mod plate dates back to 2005, what do i do? it's been resprayed so maybe they took it off then? but why is the first time it was registered was only in 2007 when it has a mod plate for 4 seats in 2005??

Hey mate,

Can you get a picture of the engine bay and post it here?

Who did you buy the car from and have you checked that the car wasn't stolen or written off?

Do you have a link to the ad for the car when you bought it?

Hey GoodoldR32,

Hey mate, do you know if it came in on RAWS or with the 15 year rule. If it did come through the 15 year rule then it wouldn't have a plate anyway. But besides that you don't need a plate to get a roadworthy, so your mechanic is way off and anyway, the Vin will be registered with Vic Roads(or your states equivalent) and NEVDIS anyway. Hope that helps
