Advice On This Car's Background

[Sloane]

Hi guys

in the market for a BNR32 GTR atm and found one that caught my eye

black 94' model

now ive done a history background check and foudn the engine # matches the vin# and the description also matches

also the car is not reported stolen nor been in any accidents.

now my concern is that in his advertisement he said that he had owned the car for 12months and bought it from a mate (import dealer)

12 months ago.

yet the history check shows its been registered for private use from jan 2008 (obviously 2 years)

and there have been 3 registered operators since the vehicle was first registered in NSW.

should i be suspicious of this? or does revs include previous ownership from other countries a.k.a japan?

also he has not compliance papers that came with car

note: the car is registered and has a RWC

please shed some light on what you guys believe i should do.

is this something to be careful of or am I ok proceed with price negotiation

here is the vehicle history check attached

The car having been 1st registered in Jan '08, and now the rego is due in Jan '10; at least the rego has probably never lapsed.

I guess the importer may have been the 1st owner, and that there's been another one before the current owner (presumably having owned it for 12 months approx).

According to VIN/Chassis# records, was the car ever owned and run in Hokkaido? If so, the car needs to be scrutinised for rust;

besides all your other checks you'll be carrying out.

I rang the owner about the result of the history check and he was unable to figure out apparently why it was registered to 3 previous owners.

Ive decided to hold off the car as it has had no service history and there was a knocking noise from the engine that my mate spotted out.

so guess ill just keep looking.

There's no need to look at the Bayside Blue one at Penrith either ($13.5K). I inspected it last week. The lady owner has no idea...

Well, welcome to the area.

At least the drive up/down thru' Hawkesbury Heights is good for warm-ups!

And Putty Rd ain't far away for a longer drive!

Have you checked Top Secret Imports at Forge St Blacktown Ph 96761023 for what's available? They've had a good few examples of R32 GT-Rs over the past yr.
