Hopefully each organization doesn't pass the buck saying ring the other...
Maybe go in to the units and knock on doors to find who's it is. Tell em the cops came around asking who owned it because they were going to fine the owner and tow it. This way you will look like a nice bloke trying to help and hopefully they'll shift it.

haha, thanks for all the suggestions.
tbh I really dont want to call the cops, and its hard being new in the area, I dont want to look like an a**hole... I think a knock on a few doors might be the best way to go... or with any luck someone will steal it!

UUMMM, checking to the car out and knocking on the owners door. Don't need number plates or rego stickers to do that either. VIN numbers are recorded and police have access to them. Make sense?

only 1/2 right. you can keep the plates and re register within 3 months but if you park on the road it is illegal and the cops can take the plates. if you intend to re register keep the car off the road

If it's reported to the police, they're not aimlessly driving round, looking for abandoned vehicles. They are actually doing their job, rather than eating donuts. So may I suggest, go back and look at what I have quoted, then comment, rather that try and entice a barnie
