re-registering a vehicle.

[Crucible]

Looking at buying a car thats dead in rego and has been pink stickered. Have been offered it for a good price and just contimplating whether or not Its worth putting through vtnz to see what it actually needs or selling it on as is for a parts car.

Havent been through the process before, anyone know what its worth for a check etc. Ill check it over for a wof and if it needs too much I wont bother but just curious re price and process.

Post 92 is hard, prior is just a hard WOF check. Been ages since I looked into it, but pretty sure it was sub $1k for a pre 92 car. If you see any crash damage walk away though.

Ah ok cheers, might pop into vtnz on the weekend and hit them up.

people were doing it for sub 400, in auckland at least, last i knew.

shits got competitive in the last couple of years.

you'd want to be getting it cheap though, def talk to vtnz first - find out what you need to prove ownership etc as well.

I just went through this with my AE101 about a month ago. The vin check was $409 at VTNZ, this got me a WOF and the MR2A form.

You then need to buy the new plates and first rego which you can either get as 6 or 12 months, I went with 6 months and that cost me $290. But that cost varies depending on engine capacity, type of vehicle, petrol or diesel, etc.

Also, if you were not the registered owner when the rego lapsed/car was deregistered (this was the story with mine), you need to fill out a statutory declaration stating that you own the vehicle and have it signed off by the courts or a JP.

Hope that helps.

Cool cheers guys thats pretty much all i need to know. Ok so around $700 then plus what ever work it needs. Funny enough it is an AE101 aswell.

Thanks for the replies.

Yeah i did it with a ae92 gtz a couple years ago wasnt too bad but check for rust as if serious repairs then need an engineers report.
