I'll get some over the weekend

Its been a couple of weeks but I didn't go ahead with it, dealer wouldn't budge on the price despite the issues brought up. And they refunded the deposit :cool: Ended up buy a relatively tidy SSV instead, not the Redline/Z series I was initially considering. Brake upgrade can be done down the...

'Pending Mechanical Inspection' Charge back is always an option as the payment was made prior to the contract being sent.

Wonder how much its cost them to hold out this long? Dead stock musnt be good for the bottom line. Carsales was showing 9 price changes and they bumped the price $1.5k after I dropped a deposit on it. Anyway, wait for Monday to see what they'll do.

Pretty much, but if the price point is good, i'll consider it. For comparison, some VFs aren't far off what they're asking Don't know why they're so adamant on the pricing considering the points mentioned. Anyway, they rang me back this arvo but pretty much stated they cant come to the table...

Bit of an update. Had the PPI done. Mechanically it came back good, except P/S Pump. But, seems theres some panel alignment issues with the front end but the mechanic couldnt find any structural issues. This + based on the fact it was apparently traded in end of last year, I gave them a pretty...

Prepurchase inspection, they go over and under the car and give a condition report

Alrighty, the dealer can either do a NSW blue slip or get it registered in NSW. I'm leaning towards them do the whole shebang so its on them if theres issues related what should have been picked up in the bluey. I'm relying on the PPI hopefully picking up any issues. I'll double check with the...

Its definitely an option, if I can get the dealer to rego it, it should save on any potential head aches, so that would be a trade off for travel time.

Forgot to mention I'm in NSW. Other than that, just time, it would be like 7-8 hrs round trip with public transport and I could be doing better things.

How long ago did you buy? Coincidentally, I also bought a VY2 Calais from the ACT many moons ago but the guy was up here on a business so I didn't need to worry about transport. Just needed a bluey and sort the rego out, went smoothly from memory. Don't know how this could be anything worse...

If I can put the risk of registering it on the dealer, I'll will.

Fingers crossed but I've been stringing the dealer along for photos and vids and it all seems fine so far. Engine sounded healthy, gbox and diff are the unknown. PPI should pick on this.

It's a fair bit cheaper than anything equivalent in NSW. Just running the numbers to see where the figure really comes to once I factor everything in. Wasn't planning of driving it over but the Queanbeyan idea might work out substantially better for me.

Looking at a 11 year old VE2 Holden Commodore Ute SSV Z series from a dealer in the ACT, I'm from NSW. Ive purchased interstate before but not un-regoed. The plan so far: PPI Pay for vehicle Insurance of some sort Freight over to Sydney Blue slip it Stamp Duty + Rego +...
