Looking up a number plate in NSW is easy and, mercifully, legal—up to a point.
Use the Service NSW Rego Check to see registration status, expiry date, CTP insurer, and basic vehicle details; you won’t get the owner’s name or address.
It’s free online or via the app, and perfect for sanity-checking a used car before you meet in a servo car park.
For deeper digs (finance owing, written-off or stolen), run a PPSR check with the VIN—cheap, quick, and worth every coin.
If anything smells off, walk away; there are plenty of legit listings on Tradingpost to browse without the drama.
