My girlfriends old 95 SB barina is finally getting replaced. The engine and transmission are on their last legs and the paint is horribly faded (like 90% of barina's).
Where in Melb are the best places to take it for some money? I know there used to be a place in Epping that would give you $250 for any car as long as you drove it there.

How does vicroads handle selling a registered car without a RW certificate? I've seen quite a few people say you can sell it registered but the new owner must get a RWC within 4-6wks but vicroads website clearly states; Quote:
It is registered until January and the car will be sold early November. We figure we will get $200-$300 from a wreckers and $100 for the rego.

i think you'll be lucky to find a wrecker to give you $300 for a barina..
if u can get it take it, & cancel the rego & get back the remainder of the rego.. for 3 months you'd get somewhere like 50 / 60 dollars.. |

Depends what you want for it ......
Do you have the time to drive from wrecker to wrecker expecting good money ??? Do you have time to stuff around with adds,then waste time with people thatll really only pay a bit more than its scrap value ??? Cancel the rego, dont worry about the headache, advertise it on line for a few hundred,if it sells good luck, if it doesnt of to the scrappie Late model stuff,isnt worth more than a cracker or two |
