firstone Posted 12September, 2014 Report Share Posted 12September, 2014 Even a repairable write off let alone a write off cannot be registered in NSW. A member of the zclub got caught with a repairable write off he couldn't transfer to NSW rego. I wonder what the pelican community would think of his non disclosure....

Coastr Posted 12September, 2014 Report Share Posted 12September, 2014 So what you're saying here Mike is that these reports are misleading? Unless he lied about buying the wreck on pelican? Maybe in the end the ins co repaired it? All I'm saying as to how much the vehicle owes him - he has obviously spent money getting the engine rebuilt and wiring replaced since buying it back from insurance (if that is what happened). So it's more than 4k. I'm not defending the actions here, it's plainly deceptive and wrong. Just saying he is not going to make 50k profit because of the engine rebuild etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hugh Posted 12September, 2014 Report Share Posted 12September, 2014 So as I understand, he bought his wreck back from the insurers for approx 4k? And then he had it repaired to what you see for sale for $0? So all it owes him is 4k - got it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tazzieman Posted 12September, 2014 Report Share Posted 12September, 2014 http://www.lawhandbook.org.au/handbook/ch12s03s01.php Probably thinks no-one will find out or take him on. I would. Given the Pelican thread , he's as guilty as a puppy standing next to a pile of poo, to quote Blackadder. firstone 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carrera86 Posted 12September, 2014 Report Share Posted 12September, 2014 As he was part of the Porsche club QLD I emailed someone in the club, who should know all the members and cars , about this car but never got a reply.... Hope whoever bought it finds out before handing over hard earned money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJM Posted 12September, 2014 Report Share Posted 12September, 2014 He is clearly dishonest but not too bright - why would you post the whole sordid story on PP and then try to flog it off as a clean rebuilt car? Has anyone emailed him the PP web link for a laugh. Very poor form but it happens every day on carsales in one way or another. PFA saves the day (again).. It's one of the reasons I coughed up $25 for PFA membership - the wealth of knowledgable assistance available to newcomers is great. Ps Kerry where's my fm status and sticker!!!

Dreamr Posted 12September, 2014 Report Share Posted 12September, 2014 Im wondering why it didn't show up on the register? He clearly bought it back cheap from the insurance company ....... they wouldn't have sold it if they didn't own it ..... to own it they would have had to write it off ..... yet not on the register .... Ideas anyone? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tazzieman Posted 13September, 2014 Report Share Posted 13September, 2014 Pelican thread says the engine was rebuilt prior to the flood. Where does the water go when some of the exhaust valves are open? Prior rebuild means nothing in this scenario. How about a happy follow up post on Pelican eh?

firstone Posted 13September, 2014 Report Share Posted 13September, 2014 I may be wrong but I believe in QLD you can register a repairable write off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tazzieman Posted 13September, 2014 Report Share Posted 13September, 2014 I may be wrong but I believe in QLD you can register a repairable write off. Don't be wrong , facts easily checked! A repairable write-off has been assessed as uneconomical to repair. The VIN will be recorded as a repairable write-off and the vehicle will only be registered if it is repaired, passes a Queensland safety inspection and passes a written-off vehicle inspection. Read detailed definitions of statutory and repairable written-off vehicles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tazzieman Posted 13September, 2014 Report Share Posted 13September, 2014 Furthermore http://www.consumerlaw.gov.au/content/acl_resources/downloads/industry_guides/motor_vehicle_sales.pdf Presume owner disclosed to Qld registration relevant past history , and the Qld inspector (no relation to owner) signed off on potentially significant hidden damage to electrical, chassis & motor? However, if you do not disclose the damage at the point of sale, there is a risk that the vehicle may later be found to be of unacceptable quality, especially if the damage is not evident or cannot be discovered through a reasonable examination of the vehicle before purchase Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
