cjv2022 Posted May 11, 2023 Share Posted May 11, 2023 Hi everyone - can anybody point me in the direction of a good place in Auckland to Re-register my lapsed 1965 Land Rover? It is fairly good condition, but trying to avoid any major hurdles eg. repair certs or rust repair if I can help it... so trying to find someone semi lenient... Thanks!

You're pretty limited as it's only certain inspection places that can do it, not just any old workshop. I used VTNZ, and even then not all branches do it. My best advice is to go over the vehicle with a fine toothed comb and fix anything that could be an issue, now - especially anything rust or structure related, and not give the inspector anything to write down. That extra time now will pay dividends later when you don't need to get a panel beater report for rust or something. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VTNZ in pukekohe is not bad for older vehicles, they have inspectors who are familiar with older vehicles There is no place now that is 'lenient' any more when it comes to re reg or compliance. Especially since the dramas that happened a few years ago with heavy vehicle certification, a lot of inspectors are scared of getting things even slightly wrong 3 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cletus Posted May 17, 2023 Share Posted May 17, 2023 Havent heard anything, That is kind of the current situation anyway, if theres any signs of repairs or if someone has undersealed the whole car / looks like someone has tried to hide something Unfortunately sandblasting can make things worse IMO if the person doing it is a fuckwit, like the ranger i looked at today that had many bits that were missed, got blasted but not painted, or the worst part, all 4 adustable OME shocks had had a tickle up on the chrome shafts with sandblasting.... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

87creepin Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 If I buy a trailer that’s had its license plates lost, do I need to re-register it? What’s the bureaucracy costs involved with that? I’ll get it up to wof standards, shouldn’t be too much drama and is it cheep to insure a trailer? I’ve read the Nzta pages but you know they’re not very helpful.

tortron Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 If rego is still live you can just get a replacement plate Tick the box where it says handing 0 plates in, and reason - lost Was about 20bucks last time I got one 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
87creepin Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 Cheers, This crusty trailer isn’t far from me, but reckon I might give it a miss. Not because it has hardly any lights, but the suspension looks suss. There’s others a few hours away that have leaf springs and for not much more. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
