Hi Warren, Sorry for the late reply. Just looked at the plate and it does say “Registration has lapsed. It has been canceled by the New Zealand Transport Agency usually for the reason being unlicensed for too long.”

Hi there
Four years ago I purchased the personalised number plate ASTON1 for my son Aston as a present for his 16th birthday when he obtained his licence(this year) but have just carjam checked and the plate is attached to a vehicle still. I paid a reasonably substantial amount for the plate, what should I do? Appreciate any advice.

You can put security on ppsr.govt.nz website. Our understanding is that you will be receiving fines etc as long as you are a registered owner of the vehicle. The way financing companies do this, as far as we understand and it’s not a legal advice, is to have ownership transfered to whoever uses the vehicle but have it secured at ppsr.govt.nz

Hey there,
I am the owwner of a vehicle on here which was taken out of my care in strange circumstances ‘ stand over’ but was also promised payment and an amount- which has not been forthconing. Firstly – how do i go about putting a security interest over it. Secondly, as i retain the ownership papers etc, does that make me liable for any infringement notices etc the vehicle may be involved in eg fined for no warrent or reg – which is the info on the report, although there was an odometre readin in april 2011, the vehicle has not been warrented, and is still not since sept 2010. I have no way of contacting the person who has it. Advice?

Hi if a person buys a report on a vehicle from you do you then inform the current owner of this? I am interested in a vehicle but would hate to think the current owner knows I am researching it first!
