here we have little to no rules lol.

If its has, legal tyres, legalish tint a horn and working lights its pretty much good to go. obviously some places are picky-er but the's a few approved inspection stations that are not so fussy.

Will not havig transfer papers be. Problem?

[Mr. Untouchable]

I dont think so no, just need to go into service tas with the RWC.

[ydawak]

I agree with Mr. Untouchable. I have brought a few cars over from the mainland and the usual things that they look at are tyres and ride height and tint and a few other miniscule things. If there is nothing majorly illegal on it and it doesnt leak bucket loads of fluids, usually you just have to bring it over the pits... I would go to RACT and if they dont like you Big Al's Garage in Longford will like you

Have fun on our roads, (meeting the legal speed limit of course)

Just rang transport tas. And transfer papers are required. So looks like I'll need to sell up

[sav man]

can't you just get the papers from your transport office?

I wish it was That simple

[scoona]

so what if u (found) the recipt from when u brought it?

that and some photo id should do the trick,

think they will ask u to sign a stat/dec.

there is usualu ways n means arround these things

I don't know the previous owners name or address because he lives in nsw and the guy I bought it from doesn't either. It's a bit of a mess. Looks like it won't be coming with me to Tasmania

[sav man]

so is it registered in your name? if not how is the rego paid?

[HSV004]

Car is registered to someone in nsw. A bloke from Adelaide bought it and then I bought it from him. Meanwhile he has misplaced the transfer papers. That sums it up in not much detail.

I'm hoping if I get a statdec from the previous owner from the Adelaide owner. That should prove my ownership and then registering in Tasmania should go without any hassles.

[SSHatch]

All sounds very dodgy to me...

I would never buy a car that didnt come with papers...

Especially an interstate car. :s

[HSV004]

EDIT... the car did come with papers. but they were lost while i was arranging to meet him and pick them up.

i'm pretty sure you can sign a stat dec saying you(?) lost the transfer papers in transit , but alternatively , you only need the reciept of sale from the person you bought it off as far as i'm aware?

sorry to hijack this thread. but does anyone know a flexible workhop on the northwest coast who will give me a roadworthyfor the 34? it has a few mods and the guy i took my wrx to was a picky bugger, he did give me the peice of paper though, however im pretty sure he wont for the skyline.

cheers

[SSHatch]

Good luck with the 'flexible' bit.

What you have to realise is that if they get caught they loose thier licence to inspect cars and its friggen hard to get it back again.

As such, you may think they are being picky but they are only doing what is legally required of them.

[HSV004]

Everything is sorted, just need to get the guy to sign a statdec and bring it with me, and the car can get into tasmanian rego by providing receipt/statdec.

pretty happy a messy situation went my way. and the 33 can follow me to tasmania.
