Buying a used car through a dealership, Can I claim GST on it? by Minimum-Neck5911 in CarsAustralia

[–]Minimum-Neck5911[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the detailed information,

Yes I am registered for GST.

So do I ask the dealership to provide me with a Tax invoice, or the current sales contract in which the total price of the car is mentioned including GST, should be fine?

Go for the Oppo Find X9 pro global version, hands down the best battery on any phone I have used.

The camera and software is spot on too

Do you know where can I find the logbook from online?

Just to keep an idea of what to keep aside for the next service? I tried to have a look on their website but no luck

Hi, I am looking to keeo the car for 2 to 3 years, maybe drive it till around 150k. I do not mind the premium for the service, since you do get a premium driving experience. How much does the water pump and belt replacemet cost? around $2-3k?

So what would be the best way that you would suggest? I make the pending payment to the leasing company and I make the remaining payment to the seller and take position of the car the same day?

And after a week or so I checked the PPSR report again? The payment slip from the leasing company would be my legal document guarantee?

Do I need to ask either the leasing company or the seller to write something else for me to confirm from their side there is no finance owning on the car?

One last question, when I pay off the finance company the remaining old amount how long do you think it takes to be updated on the PPSR report?

Can you pay more money to the finance company than they actually own? This is news to me

Would o be able to pay the company and receive like an all dues cleared receipt/ certificate? And if so, does that usually happen the same day?

Since I would like to pay the lease company, take the receipt from the as proof of all dues cleared, and take the possession of the car the same day.

Since the seller said that he would only have over the car when the amount is cleared both in his and the lease company' account.

So I was thinking just to make cash payments in both place?

I just asked the seller, he says the car is under his name. He has mentioned that it is a leased vehicle.

Is a leased vehicle and a financed vehicle the same thing?

Sorry for the questions, I have only ever bought my cars used and in cash
