selling a car queensland

Selling a car in Queensland is about as straightforward as a Sunday drive—if you know the rules. First, you'll need to complete a Transfer of Vehicle Registration form and give it to the new owner. Don't forget to provide a receipt and the current registration papers. The new owner is responsible for transferring the registration within 14 days, or they might get a fine. Also, Queensland requires a safety inspection (roadworthy certificate) if the car's registration has been expired for more than three months or if the buyer requests it.

Prices for private sales vary wildly, but checking CarShowroom or Tradingpost can give you a ballpark figure. Remember, honesty about the car's condition saves you from legal headaches later.
