Selling A Car To Melbourne

[carizma]

Hey mate,

Just to help you out, you could unregister it and then send it down to Melbourne but be warned, if the guy then goes to the Vic Roads and the people there don't know really what they are doing they might ask him for the import approval and the Consumer Information Notice (CIN).

The only way you'll keep the plates though is if you de-register the car in NSW, and then ship it down and the guy down in Melbourne can get a permit to drive it to the Vic Roads office.

Hey guys,

If I sell my car to Melbourne from Sydney, what needs to be done?

I have current NSW plates which I want to keep, so do I just go to the RTA and get my car un registered?

Does the buyer from Melbourne then get a day pass to drive to melbourne unregistered?

Once he is in Melbourne, what does he need to do to get the car registered?

Thanks for any help.

What is the CIN? Where do I get that from?

just sell it registered (meaning with a RWC for your state) and let the buyer deal with all the crap.

OR u can sell it without rego but buyer will have to go thru pits again..

what on earth is a CIN?

he's got an R34 GTR, which means its complied under RAWS, which is a federally recognised compliancy scheme, unlike the state based one in place for shitty old 15 year bangers.

you shouldn't have any problems registering the car in VIC if it has a compliance sticker and VIN number on the chassis. RWC has to be VIC issued, not from NSW so there's no point.

you'll need a day permit in both NSW and VIC to drive the car down as one will not cover you in both states.

You can simply ...

i) put your plates into storage and get replacement ones (to keep the car registered)

ii) swap plates with a family member @ $22/swap ie. $44 to RTA and take with you the 2X Certificates of Rigistr'n

Price has probably gone up per swap methinks (since I did it).
