drodi Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 today i was so happy to get my 32 on the road. i got to vic roads and everything was cool paperwork checked out until the inspector oppend my bonnet had the road worthy in his hand cheaking to see if all the engine numbers checked out and the dickhead who gave me a road worthy cert wrote down the engine number but misstake a 3 for a c the cock head of a inspector wouldn't even change the misstake. he told me to get another road worthy cert and wrote void all over it and made a booking for next tues. next time you get a car registed or in your name when you by a car make sure the engine number is right so it dosent cause hassles Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/167989-watch-out-when-getting-your-car-regoed/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

zed32 Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 so you're blaming vic roads for your road worthy testers mistake? You can't expect vic roads to just change your engine number...I'm sure you can see what kind of problems that can lead too....

Rekin Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 ouch which vicroads was that? Had similar story at burwood, Didnt rego the car because the tyre brand on the rwc was different to the ones i had on!!1 Car was complianced/rwc'd with standard r32 wheels although sale included aftermarket rims so drove to vicroads with them... Luckily he told me to take it back, get wheels swapped over and come back in 15mins. Came back and didnt even check the brand of tyres just said yep lol Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/167989-watch-out-when-getting-your-car-regoed/#findComment-3107273 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taxi33 Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 I had the same problem once, one tyer on the complience sheet didn't match the one of the car... The complience people made a mistake on as they wrote 230 or somthing -_- Straight away i rang the complience people and made them get another one ready, as i had to go pick up another sheet because vic roads wouldnt accept a fax too them from the complience place! Got it regod the same day! Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/167989-watch-out-when-getting-your-car-regoed/#findComment-3107304 Share on other sites More sharing options...

GTR_STEALTH Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 Just take it back to the guy that did the RWC and show him the mistake.

Yer it sux...but how is it VicRoads fault? They have a job to do, and if someone doesnt provide them with the correct information/paperwork why should they put their ass on the line for someone else? LoL @ waiting another week. BooHoo Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/167989-watch-out-when-getting-your-car-regoed/#findComment-3107703 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronin 09 Posted May 10, 2007 Share Posted May 10, 2007 not vic roads fault - it's your RWC issuer. it's like saying at the bank - "well the digits are one out on the account but i'd still like to draw funds out of it. thanks" GOI.

Rekin Posted May 10, 2007 Share Posted May 10, 2007 burwood guys but the guy was a real dick about it was your inspector a fat old grumpy guy? As i returned back to my compliancer/seller he told me he has had plenty of troubles with him haha. Something about when they import a new car, they need a vicroads person to inspect it before they can import more or something. Not too sure on the laws lol Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/167989-watch-out-when-getting-your-car-regoed/#findComment-3109283 Share on other sites More sharing options...
