sell unregistered car wa

Yes, you can sell an unregistered car in WA; just be upfront and advertise it as “unlicensed”, not a secret barn-find that can magically drive home.

You don’t need a roadworthy to sell in WA, but your buyer will need an Unlicensed Vehicle Permit or a trailer to move it, and they’ll face inspection and licensing fees later.

Give a proper receipt with the VIN, engine number, price, date, and both parties’ details, and keep a copy like it’s your favourite coffee loyalty card.

Don’t let anyone test-drive it on public roads without that permit—fines are a lot less fun than torque.

Cancel your insurance and toll tags, and remove any personal gear; plates should only be used if the vehicle is currently licensed.

When you’re ready to offload it, listing on Tradingpost keeps things tidy and local, which is exactly what a WA shed deserves.
