66 Beetle - Sell as is or Re-register?
Hi, I have been missing from this site for quite a while due to a variety of factors, including something called work.
I need some advice regarding my Beetle. It is an original 6 volt 1300 Deluxe. Has original NSW number plates, is in very very good condition. As
aficionados say "unmolested"
I have just got a pink slip ready to re-register it in NSW.
However, I rarely use the car, and I am thinking of putting it on the market.
Question - do I advertise it with a pink slip OR spend the $750 odd, and offer with 12 months full registration?
If it sells interstate, I have done the registration money cold.
What do you think?
cheers
PS Thinking around $7K + rego

How about you offer it for sale with 12 months rego (once $1000 deposit taken) if a NSW person buys it or without rego if an interstate buyer takes
it. Obviously price difference if sold with or without rego.
Cant lose this way, Kev.

Thanks for the opinions fellas. I will go ahead and register it. That way I can still have a run whenever I can.
I really don't want to sell it, but it is just not getting used enough.
cheers

Cant help myself, sorry. A car is really only worth what someone is willing to pay for it. If you have been watching Beetles the prices have gone up
and I'm not saying I agree with them. But I have seen stock Beetles and only in good condition, not pristine asking $10,000. Personally I dont think
they would get the 10K but thats what they are asking.
Also Pete, you being a man of the cloth should not attack others by putting them or their dreams down.
I could say that I find religious people are all arse holes and are blinded by their faith and only really care about themselves.
I'm not saying this about you and please forgive me as a good Christian should. My statement is in no way directed at you, as we have never even
met. I'm just trying to make a point.
Kevin
