    If it's a private sale you're not required to have a RWC, but you have to hand in the plates to Vicroads and the purchaser gets the plates back when they get a RWC.

    Been a while since I have had to get a RWC but i would think it would be around the $100 mark plus any repairs required to pass

    just as a rule of thumb fleet price for a Falcodore is 2/3 retail. There is margin there that the big boys are able to get. So have a go at the stuff ideas so on that people put forward to see if you can get in on that.

    Bit of the wrong time to say mabye but there are discounts going midyear. They allways do a midyear sale usually June from memory

    No, that's not as i understand it. You have 30 days to get it roadworthy if it's sold without one. That's what happened when i bought a car for my son 3 years ago. i don't think it's changed since.
    If at first you don't succeed, give something else a go. Life is far too short to waste time trying.

    No worries, as I said it's been a while since I did and back in those days you had to hand the plates in

    Just had a squizz on the Vic Roads site here and you must either supply with a RWC or cancel the rego.

    Certainly has changed since I last did it.

    Reading that I'd say it's OK to sell without a roadworthy as long as the buyer gets one in 14 days.

    I think car salesman get a bad rap generally thats prob not deserved. Yes there are exceptions however these are very much in the minority.

    I think of it this way. If I was running a business I would want to make as much money as I can to keep it running.

    If a customer has not done his homework and is prepared to pay more for the product then I see no issue with that at all.

    Most people pay too much cause there lazy....

    cheers

    and yes I see the irony in my final statement

    Too true. Failing to change the ownership (by the purchaser) was one wonderful way of not paying recieved parking tickets, speeding fines, etc., and causing headaches for the 'seller'. This will not occur when I sell.

    Hi Soth,

    Just a thought on the RWC - as a buyer, I would be less inclined to buy without one as you are buying what you think is a good vehicle, only to find you need $$$ spent before they give you it. I would still look at it, but maybe more picky with the price just in case I get caught with a lemon.
    As a seller, I would probably be more inclined to grab it also (well at least when we're talking $4000, if it was $1000 maybe not), not so much to increase my sale value, but because it may sell the car quicker and less painfully.
    I am not a great negotiater, so a quicker and easier sale, either as seller or buyer is in my best interests. You may be a great salesman and not in a rush to get rid of the old hilux so may not matter, just another opinion for you.
    Cheerio.
    Shannon
