im thinking of selling my vs ss but i dont wana part with the number plates and i have no time to get a road worthy as i work 9-5. im thinking of just cancelling the reg and taking the plates off and selling it for 5 or 6k
i heard its illegal to sell a car without a road worthy if its got reg, ive never sold a car b4 n dunno how to do about it. if i get standard plates from vic roads can i sell it with reg and no road worthy? or is it compulsery to get a rwc?
Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

you can sell your car without reg or roady or with reg and no roady, just go and get standard issue plates and sell it like that if you want to keep your plates, you can stool sell it without a roady, but it will prob be more harder to sell it all depends on the buyer, hope that helps

You can even transfur a car without a rwc, rego is suspended after two months if a rwc is not recieved by vic roads. In the past when i have recieved fines for cars that i have sold and have remained in my name I have nominated the new owner as the driver and sent a photocopy of the transfur form along with the nomination statment, havn't have one rejected as of yet.

Im sure too that its not to be sold without a RWC if it has rego. Lots of people do it though.
With your plates, just go to vicroads and get standard plates issued before you sell it.

15-06-09, 20:58 GMT+10#11 well when you sell it, u will have to get transfer papers, write your details and buyers details once that is done give vic roads your transfer papers. the buyer has i think 14 days to transfer it under his name and i think 30 days to get a roadworthy,
if then you by chance get a fine, just tell vic roads the situation by then im sure that they would know if the car has been transferred or not, if not the buyer would recieve the fine not you

15-06-09, 21:08 GMT+10#14 yeah can only sell a car with a rwc or de-reg it. just get the bloke who buys it to get his own roady and phone you through the details then fill out your disposal form and hand it in. just make sure he fills out his part of the disposal form so you have his details if he runs a red, ect

19-06-09, 10:46 GMT+10#19 selling a car with reg but no roady is illegal.
what i would recomend is that you sell the car but keep one plate. tell the new owner to organise change of ownership / r/w and get a signed reciept with the date the car changed hands.
tell him that once he has a roady and a change of ownership form filled out he can have the second plate back. give the new owner a timeline and tell him you will report the plates stolen if he doesn't contact you with a r/w or a good excuse before the deadline.
thats what we do at my work when we sell cars as is without r/w

In Victoria a Certificate of Roadworthiness is generally required when a vehicle is sold or if a used vehicle is to be re-registered.
note the use of the word "generally", so i really doubt that you must have one by law
the buyer can just obtain one themselves anyway

that's ridiculous, you'd actually be making a false dec re one plate being "stolen" and that is illegal
