| 682835 | 2008-06-27 04:59:00 | registration and ownership are two totally different things...........and they've totally misrepresented the value of the vehicle Agreed - registration of ownership is evidence you may own something, but not conclusive eg. you can't own it if it has been stolen. My advice - ask the District Court to transfer the proceedings to the Disputes Tribunal. It'll save you money and time. FYI contracts do not need to be in writing - oral agreements are common and normal. For a contract to exist you need an agreement of consideration (legal term for money) in exchange for a benefit. No money needs to change hands - it is the agreement which is essential to form a contract. The money can be sued for. Sounds like you've been ripped off by your friend. However that doesn't mean there isn't a valid contract - so unless she gives it up, you'll have to defend yourself. You have a good chance of success. |

| 682836 | 2008-06-27 08:55:00 | There are strict provisions on selling "motor Vehicles" that are not roadworthy. The law requires that a "motor vehicle" will have a current warrant of fitness not more than 30 days old. There should be an out within this regulation unless the vendor met all the requirements of the law in relation to selling an unwarranted vehicle. |
