Thread: D4 purchase, sharp dealer recommendations?

A couple of us have driven cars back from the east illegally. In my case it was accidental as I didn't know about the permit requirements and thought I was covered by the existing NSW rego. Unfortunately that is not the case and I had to get a permit to drive it from home to the licensing centre after they told me I could not drive it.


If you do drive I recommend getting it licensed in Kalgoorlie or Esperance on the way through. I bought a trailer in SA and got a permit to Esperance, where it is easy to license as long as you meet all of the conditions, which was a bit more difficult for the trailer than a car.

In Victoria it is legal to drive a car where ever you want with a permit from the dealer. (Unregistered vehicle permit) There are stipulations ie you are supposed to go directly home and not drive it around. The permit can be a 7, 14 or 28 day. When you get home you are then supposed to only drive it to a place to get it registered.

I got a '14 TDV6 late May from Lennock in ACT, speak with Gareth, we got a fantastic deal considering the spec level we ended up with.

I would recommend him without hesitation.
