Auction Papers From Several Years Ago.

[Astro Bear]

My car was imported late 2007, early 2008. Would there be anyway I could find auction details for this car?

It's probably a shot in the dark, but I thought I would ask, as I was curious what grade / km the car came in with etc.

Is there any hope?

Try ask the person you bought the car from?

Failing that, maybe DOTARS have them (dunno if they get a copy of the sheet)?

Dotars do not get a copy of the auction sheet. It's purely up to the importer you bought it from whether they will supply it or not, but that's of course if the car is bought from the auction.

Chances are pretty much zero. Check on here to find out who complied your car, then ask the workshop.

agreed, chances zero or so close as to be within rounding error of zero...

1. car may not even have been bought at auction.

2. most likely the buyer looked the car up on-line or at the auction house's terminal and never printed a hard copy of the sheet.

3. if the car was bought at auction a copy of the sheet will be given to the agent/buyer or left in the vehicle, most likely at this point they just chucked it out.

4. remember, the auction report is just a basic spec sheet and inspection guide of the car. it doesn't matter what condition the car was in 3 years ago. it matters what condition it's in now.

5. the sheet wont tell you anything you can't better see with your own eyes. all buyers use the sheet just as a guide to see if a car is worth going to see in the metal or not. after that they base buying decisions on what they can see in the metal.

like chef suggested you could try the compliance workshop but they may never have seen or had the sheet either. also ask the bloke you bought it off. but no official body will have it. and zero chance of trying to get it out of an auction house.

maybe try googling your chassis number and see if anything pops up?
