Buying an unregistered vehicle for repair
I've been looking at purchasing a vehicle in Australia to travel around with while on a working holiday visa. It seems a simple process normally.
I have seen quite a few vehicles that I would be interested in purchasing in an unroadworthy condition and doing up before travelling with. However the process seems impossible in this situation.
The way it is described, the seller can only sell in a roadworthy condition. I wouldn't want to do repairs to a vehicle I did not yet own. Also, I wouldn't want to have to require the previous owner to come back and finish the registration transfer a month later, after I'd bought it and done it up.
Can anyone explain the actual process involved?
Thanks
Storm
