  1. On a positive note, at least it's not depreciating like most other cars
  2. yeah but imagine the "peace of mind" you'll have after you're stone broke
  3. Do you have a mechanic friend? Do you have a panelbeater friend? If so, make a list for each of you to check the car over. If you have an older dude 'er dad to haggle for you after all the above ^^^ comes up trumps, see what the best price is - and haggle some more. You might only need $100 to pay a deposit and get a receipt. Then get details of the VIN/Chassis Number + Engine Number off the Rego & check that the Rego is in the name of the person who says he owns the car. Then physically check on the car itself if those 2X numbers correspond. You have to supply your Driver's Lic # to him. Take the VIN/Chassis # + Engine # + Rego # and cross-check with REVS (Register of Encumbered VehicleS) in your state.

  6. Here's some good reading for you John... then you won't feel so bad. http://www.skylinesaustralia.com.forums/Sk...al-t226079.html
  7. +1 for insurance so long as it's 'Agreed Value' Comprehensive & all mods and updated rims noted. Insurance companies tend to screw the policy holder if he/she only has 'Market Value'
  8. Only trouble with this scam is... RTA has a record of what Kms had been accumulated at the previous rego check. Not good if the current odo reads less than the RTA rego check figure. Different of course if the car has just been imported; and even the auction sheet odo could have been falsified.
  9. ^^^ Both Shannons & Just Car will do this for minimal increase in premium; but for a reasonably higher increase in 'sum insured'

    Wheel Nuts

    they're the cream of the crop - very light, quite strong - 4 locknuts + the other 16 i still take my slim socket + wrench around with me though; so it'll fit between the nut 'n wheel best not to use the rattle gun with these too > torque wrench set to 108 nM.

  12. thought that only happened to alfas lol
  13. I once wanted to buy a European car that through REVS, came up with the statement, "...INTEREST ON THIS CAR". When I confronted the owner, he stated that there was still a residual lease and that I could pay 1 cheque to him and 1 to the institution. Not being totally convinced, I got permission to talk to some representative at the institution and together we came up with the idea that myself and the owner complete the transaction at the institution. Once we arrived at the institution, all papers were signed; but before handover of the 2 cheques, the institution did a further check to see if the then owner had taken out another loan on the car, which came out negative. The institution then told me that REVS would still state "...INTEREST ON THIS CAR" for another 48 hours - but the car was clear of any encumberances. You just need to make sure that there's not more than 1 loan on that car before you pay off the existing loan ie. 1 cheque to the owner and 1 to the institution > paid at the institution.
